New Bulk Seed and Treatment Option at Lowe
 
Now is the time to begin planning your triticale and wheat seed needs for fall drilling. We are excited to announce that seed treatment services will now be available at our Lowe facility. In the coming weeks, you will see bulk tanks installed at Lowe as part of our new bulk wheat and triticale seed facility.
 
GCC has been serving the small grains seed market for many years, and this new bulk facility will provide added convenience and efficiency for producers in the area. In addition to offering high-quality seed, we will be able to quickly apply seed treatments to either customer-owned seed or seed purchased from GCC.
 
For more information about seed products or treatment options, please contact one of our Seed Sales Representatives.
 
Stay Ahead of Weed Pressure
 
Summer fallow and wheat stubble spraying should remain a top priority during the summer months. Staying ahead of rapidly growing weeds is critical to protecting the success of next year's crop.
 
Herbicide and Application Options
 
Utilizing residual herbicides during this period is an excellent strategy for managing ongoing weed pressure. There are several effective and reasonably priced options available. Customers in the Lowe and Plymell areas can also take advantage of our See & Spray technology. This system identifies and sprays existing weeds, reducing chemical usage while delivering effective results. At the same time, the split-tank and split-boom configuration allows a residual herbicide to be applied across the entire field. This technology helps reduce costs while maximizing flexibility and efficiency.
 
Reach out to your GCC Sales Agronomist to answer any questions about herbicide programs or application options.

Recent federal action has temporarily changed certain rules and potential penalties surrounding the use of dyed diesel fuel on public roads. While this action may provide short-term flexibility in some situations, important questions remain regarding tax obligations, state-level enforcement, and operational considerations.

Garden City Co-op encourages members and customers to understand not only what the federal order allows, but also what it does not resolve and how your state may respond as guidance continues to develop.
