We may offer conventional soybeans but our approach to the industry is anything but conventional. Over the last 40 years, the traditional soybean breeding method has been to increase trait stacks in response to holes in previous traits.

Our soybeans are derived from the world’s largest non-GMO germplasm bank, meaning our varieties start and stay non-GMO.

This approach enables us to continue improving the genetic engine that drives yield performance. The result? High yielding soybeans with a lowered input expense and increased profits per bushel for your farm.

THERE IS ONE TRUTH TO SOYBEAN YIELD:
IT STARTS WITH RAW GENETIC POTENTIAL.

Virtue varieties have been developed through decades of elite soybean breeding with the sole intent to create elite non-GMO germplasm, fueling non-GMO seed products. Fact is, we are a unique private seed brand, breeding soybeans with the specific intent of marketing non-GMO varieties.

WHY THIS MATTERS TO YOU:
  1. Our varieties are developed with stress and disease tolerance
  2. We test each variety in diverse and difficult environments, so we know where to make positioning recommendations
  3. Our genetics are NEW, meaning our non-GMO soybeans have higher yield potential than ones that have been on the market for years
  4. Typically, the highest yielding varieties are placed into a trait integration program, but Virtue is different. We recognize the potential in keeping these varieties as non-GMO
FOUR KEYS TO MORE PROFITABLE SOYBEAN PRODUCTION WITH VIRTUE NON-GMO SEED.

START WITH THE HIGHEST YIELDING GENETICS.

Virtue gives you non-GMO soybeans that are packed with pure genetic power, but what does that mean for you? We rely on the strongest genetics bred from our germplasm to bring excellent non-GMO varieties to the market.

WE DON’T RELY ON ANY TRAITS, JUST GENETICS.

LOWER YOUR INPUT EXPENSE AND INCREASE YOUR PROFIT PER BUSHEL.

Transgenic traits have been a monumental advance in improving the productivity of today’s farmer. And there is certainly a place for traits in the seed industry. But what goes unnoticed in the shadow of these developments are the huge advancements in soybean breeding and germplasm. This genetic improvement has provided producers a viable, if not preferable, alternative to today’s trait platforms. See for yourself. VIRTUE non-GMO varieties can provide nearly $100 in additional profit.
