OAS Champion

Field Performance of the OAS Champion Soybean

When selecting seed for the season, every farm manager looks for a balance between genetic stability and commercial value. My experience with the OAS Champion variety from TerraVita (Overseas) Limited has proven that this material is built for growers who need consistency. Developed through the collaboration between PZO and the University of Guelph, this variety brings the best of Canadian breeding to your fields.

Growth and Harvesting Characteristics

What stands out immediately in the field is the uniformity of the crop. Standing at 90-100 cm tall, these plants are perfectly suited for modern combine harvesters. The lower pod clearance is excellent, which is a major advantage for operators trying to minimize header losses during harvest. The plant architecture is compact yet sturdy, allowing the crop to handle high planting densities without the risk of lodging, even under heavy summer wind conditions.

Grain Quality and Market Value

For those marketing their crop, OAS Champion is a reliable asset. With protein levels consistently reaching 37-39% and oil content at 21-22%, this grain meets the high standards required by processors. Furthermore, the pods are highly resistant to shattering. This provides a crucial buffer during harvest; if bad weather delays the combine, the crop remains intact, saving you from unnecessary yield loss.

Why OAS Champion?

• Harvest Efficiency: The ideal pod placement height allows for smooth operation with virtually any grain header.
• Proven Genetics: Developed by the University of Guelph, the variety shows high predictability across various soil types.
• Profitability: The high protein and oil profile makes this variety a preferred choice for grain buyers and processing plants.

If you are looking for a variety that doesn't require complex management but consistently delivers in the tank, OAS Champion from TerraVita is a solid choice for any crop rotation. It’s a straightforward, high-performing variety that rewards good management with quality results.
