  • More Economic Development

    The Brookings Register has another story on economic development, this time on the eastern edge of Volga.

    “This permanent site represents our commitment to develop high-yielding hybrids perfectly suited for area growers,” said William Niebur, DuPont vice president. “We continue to push the Corn Belt north and west.”

    Research will test next-generation weed and insect control, drought tolerance and efficient nitrogen use traits. When operational, the South Dakota Research Center team will also expand yield testing in east-central South Dakota and western Minnesota.

    The regional emergence of ethanol will also impact developed traits. Pioneer plans to expand its ethanol evaluation test plots to create hybrids capable of producing more ethanol per acre.
