Albert Lea Seed is committed to the success of organic farmers, and our Viking & Blue River brands offer the leading lineup of organic corn hybrids in the United States. Our seed is screened, trialed, tested, and is specifically adapted to the unique challenges of organic farming. For example, we know that fast emergence and strong early-season growth are crucial characteristics for organic corn. 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. Hybrids designated PURE are 99% GMO-free, and products designated ULTRAPURE are 99.9% GMO-free.

We source our germplasm from large and small breeding programs and 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. Some of our replicated trials are run on certified organic ground so we can see how our hybrids and varieties perform under organic conditions. When you plant Viking & Blue River organic seed corn, you can be sure it has been screened and produced specifically for organic farming. You deserve the best so why settle? Plant Viking & Blue River.

You can’t grow non-GMO grain if the seed you are planting has high levels of GMOs. Conventional and organic farmers growing corn and soybeans for a specific non-GMO end-user need to know how much GMO is in the seed they are planting. To meet that need we developed the seed industry’s first non-GMO purity guarantee.

Products designated PURE are guaranteed to be 99% GMO-free.

Products designated ULTRAPURE are guaranteed to be 99.9% GMO-free.
