We combined the best of the Viking and Blue River organic seed to bring you the new, stronger Blue River lineup. We believe it's the single strongest lineup of corn hybrids in the nation. Together with your local Blue River dealer, the team at Albert Lea Seed is committed to the success of organic farmers. Our organic seed corn is screened, trialed, tested, and specifically adapted to the unique challenges of organic farming.

We also know how important the absence of GMOs is to organic farmers and consumers. We were the first company in the U.S. to offer a purity guarantee on corn. Blue River organic corn comes in three different levels of purity: UltraPure (99.9% GMO-Free), Pure (99.0% GMO-Free), and Select (98.0% GMO-Free). If it doesn’t meet one of these three standards, we won’t sell it as organic seed.

Our germplasm is sourced from large and small breeding programs and we run our own replicated testing program to compare all these hybrid corn seeds. We are looking for the highest yield (and the best tonnage/quality for silage), but we are also screening hybrids for emergence, ear flex, drydown, stalk and root strength, disease resistance, drought tolerance, and population tolerance.

We believe that organic farmers are best served by a qualified dealer who understands the local growing conditions and the regional challenges, markets, and network. You can find a dealer near you using our dealer finder or call 800.370.7979.

What is PuraMaize?

PuraMaize is a hybrid corn just like all Blue River or Viking corn varieties. However, it has one very important advantage: the PuraMaize gene blocking system.

Developed through traditional selective breeding, the PuraMaize gene-blocking system obstructs GMO corn cross pollination contamination. Simply put, PuraMaize prefers its own pollen over the pollen of neighboring corn hybrids that do not contain PuraMaize.

If PuraMaize pollen is present during the pollination window, all non-PuraMaize pollen is rejected, including GMO, Gene Edited and CRISPR pollen.

Why is this important?

The PuraMaize line strengthens the ability of organic growers to continue to farm organically without worrying about pollen drift from their conventional neighbors’ corn fields. An
added benefit is that organic growers will no longer delay planting, widening their window for corn grain production.

RiseUp Seed Treatment

All Blue River Organic and Viking Non-GMO corn for organic farmers will be coated with RiseUp, our label for organic-compliant seed treatments that promote strong emergence, early vigor, and robust development that leads to highly productive plants.

The following treatments could be on your RiseUp-treated corn. (OMRI Certificates for these products can be found here):

SOILBIOTICS® SEED START 200

SoilBiotics® Seed Start 200 is a humic acid seed treatment combined with a blend of living, breathing microorganisms. This humic acid improves cold germination and seedling emergence and vigor. The biological factor in Seed Start 200 has an all-around positive effect on the growth rate, immunity of the seedling to biotic and abiotic stress, the development of the root system and its microbiome, and therefore its ability to assimilate nutrients.

SABREXTM ROOT INCOCULANT

SabrEx Root Inoculant is a proprietary blend of trichoderma and mycorrhizal fungi that aids in plant rooting, nutrient and water uptake.

SOILBIOTICS® 1R

SoilBiotics® 1R is a humic acid product derived from mined Leonardite. It is formulated to improve nutrient uptake, provide better root development, and reduce plant stress.

The combination of treatments cannot be ordered or specified in advance.
It is dependent on the location and timing of the seed cleaning and treatment process.
