I have noticed that not much for trial results are on the BASF Invigor webpage: agro.basf.ca/trial_results/?t=invigor at least for our area.

There was a trial very close by and it isn't on there and spoke with someone who asked the rep and nothing for info there yet either. When they are pushing for seed booking yet can't give results in a timely fashion it is frustrating. Unless they are only reporting the trials they win now?

What are guys seeing for good LL pod shatter stuff? I never got any 83SC in this year but it narrowly won my trial in 2021 and seed is available this year. For me this year L233P was very close to being better than L340PC despite having beetles and hail. But it isn't put in trials much anymore it seems.

BASF sure seem to be pushing l345pc. The mass email sent out the other day showed some results from there plots but I dont like the way they tabulated the results. It showed one variety 28% of the time placed first and so on. That doesnt really give a good representation . I never really put much stock into those numbers anyway. Disappointed basf's variety l252 is not available for 2023. I have tried l345pc twice already but it has not measured up to l252 yield. Feels like starting from square one again on what works best on the farm.

Grew l340 l233 and some dekalb tfll21sc double stack this year.
Never had all three in the same field but for the most part 340 was the winner. The dekalb was about six inches shorter which I liked and dried down much quicker and combined easier but I was disappointed in the pod drop.
Could easily find pods on the ground under the dekalb and couldn’t find a single pod underneath the invigor. L340 in same field with dekalb and the 340 averaged about 300 pounds or so better than it. I don’t think there is any way that it dropped that many pounds on the ground so must have a slight yield drag compared to 340.
Dekalb was about $130 per bag cheaper and came treated with buteo start which worked very well for me.
I see invigor is now available with buteo which I think is worth the price.
