Seed movement is intense with tight supplies and strong pricing across key Willamette Valley crops. Turfgrass field‑day findings highlight emerging tools, pests, and practices shaping how breeders and managers evaluate modern turf.

Harvest conditions are excellent, but yields are mixed—orchardgrass is notably low and tall fescue pricing remains unstable. In other news, we are increasing availability of our newest tetraploid annual ryegrass, EarlyBoss—an earlier-maturing variety delivering high-quality forage.

Harvest is just about ready to kick off in Oregon, and the crop still looks solid with timing expectations holding steady. This month, we also break down the simple but important difference between Nitro‑Coat® and Nitro‑Coat® Organic. And if you ever find yourself in Oregon, we’d love to welcome you—come tour our facilities and meet the people who make it possible to fulfill your orders with care and precision.
