HopperStart™ CN
Corn Hopper-Box Treatment
This all-in-one hopperbox treatment combines a soybean-based planter/seed lubrication system that has been used on millions of Midwest crop acres with a product proven to increase yields & ROI. This provides several distinct advantages over traditional talc and graphite.
WHAT IS IT?
Soybean based amino acid fluency agent
→ This soy-protein derived from dehulling soybeans was developed as an alternative seed lubricant with benefits over traditional talc/graphite Terrasym, proven to increase yields!
→ A Beck’s PFR Proven biological hopper box additive included in HopperStart™ CN!

→ A Beck’s PFR Proven biological hopper box additive included in HopperStart™ CN!
Beck’s PFR testing found a three-year average yield increase of 3.8 bu./A., with yearly increases from 2.7 to 4.6 bu./A.
WHY USE IT?
Increased Yield & ROI!
→ Terrasym, tested in Beck’s Practical Farm Research Program, is a Beck’s PFR Proven product, demonstrating a 3.8 bu./A. yield increase over 3 years of testing. In the three years of testing, yield increases ranged from 2.7 bu./A. to 4.6 bu./A.
→ Terrasym improves nutrient uptake by increasing early season root mass. This leads to a plant with enhanced abiotic stress tolerance.
The soybean based amino acid fluency agent is superior to talc and graphite in several ways:
→ Significant reduction in dust generated compared to talc
→ Greatly reduced release of neonicotinoids in the environment, saving bees and enhancing natural pollination
→ Comparable flowability and singulation to commercially available seed lubricants
It’s a source of Amino Acids
→ Soy protein is an ideal source of amino acids, which promotes better seed germination and biological activity in the furrow

Testimonials
We are in an area with very high rainfall events this Spring. The corn treated with HopperStart CN from Yield Innovations appeared to emerge faster and more uniform.

The way Yield Innovations can adapt to our farming practices really helped my farm by understanding what we do and making the right plan that fits our needs! Yield Innovations is always looking for new products and practices to increase yield and ROI on our farm. Their main focus is about helping the farmer be more profitable and I am proud to be partnering with Yield Innovations.
We’ve been implementing Yield Innovations’ Agronomic Profit System (TAPS™) on our farm for the last 6 years. It has benefited the farm by increasing our yields. The trend is up! Actually, our crop insurance agent noticed our yield trend and showed us a graph of how our APH changed over the last 6 years. You can see it. There’s no question. When you asked us what we think has contributed to our improvements the most… it’s not one product. We’ve changed so many things. It’s really just the system that Yield Innovations has personalized for us. It’s not one product. It’s just all of it!
