The GDM® testing network is vast.

In North America, our breeding and product development teams perform rigorous testing across all DONMARIO varieties prior to them reaching your field.

In addition to our independent breeding program, our product development team manages numerous large strip trial locations across different environments to select and characterize new products. We place these strip trials in low to high yield conditions, measuring our commercial and precommercial varieties against the best checks on the market.

Variables analyzed in our product testing include row spacing, planting dates, soil types and many other factors, so that we can provide farmers with the most accurate and intelligent agronomic insights and recommendations.
