Do any feed mills or coops sell their year old seed corn at a discount? Looking for some in SE Wisconsin, or Eastern Wisconsin, as I travel through all of E. WI on my way to camp. RR corn.
Any Year Old Seed Corn Available?

Ask around your seed dealers. They’ve all got partial bags left over that are extremely toxic and should not be dumped. They gladly gave them away when I visited with them. Otherwise they risk getting an Alt-N fiasco in their own well water.

Also I bet it’s worth checking in with a few farmers around you. Mine always have some leftover and usually a case of Busch light will get me all I need along with a few pointers for planting.
SD, as far as coatings go I only did inoculate on my beans this year. Is the concern in the insecticide and fungicide? Or all coatings?

It’s the neonic seed coat. If you haven’t heard the Mead Nebraska story, it’s worth knowing.

IMO they are the worst farm chemical in history. The aquatic invertebrate population is near non existent.
There are also fish kills every year around here about the time the helicopters start flying around doing fungicide applications.

Yearling... With promise
Most seed corn if it's unused that season gets shipped back and stored in a facility at 50 degrees and 50% humidity to protect the germ, also don't want to use regular corn from the elevator as they use heat to dry it which harms the germ. Alot of seed dealers have left over "plot seed" that's in a one acre bag for test plots, or farmers always have left over seed, they aren't that good at figuring out exactly how much they need, and I'm sure some would just give you some depending on how much you need.
