Dear Corn Producer. Thank you for visiting the “Big Cob” tent at Husker Harvest Days this September. I want to introduce myself my name is Dr. David L. Benson and I own and operate Cornhusker Hybrids, LLC an independent corn research, corn breeding and consulting company located near Burwell, Nebraska. I am excited to inform you that over the last year or so I have assumed the duties of Corn Research Director and Western Region Sales Manager for the fastest growing most exciting seed company in the western corn belt” Big Cob Hybrids”.
“Big Cob” Hybrids is the only farmer owned, Independent Seed Company in the state of Nebraska and possibly the whole United States. “Big Cob” Hybrids was founded in 2009 by Jim McGowen a farmer and crop consultant and my son Benjamin Benson making its World Headquarters near Beaver Crossing, Nebraska. Big Cobs lineup consists of normal, as well as Herculex1 and Agrisure trait hybrids. “Big Cob” focuses its breeding and selection efforts exclusively on the western Corn Belt states of Nebraska and Kansas. To become a “Big Cob” any new commercial must be a high yielding drought and wind stress tolerant work horse. You can be certain that the “Big Cob” hybrid evaluation process leads to the introduction of World Class Genetics for yield with the agronomic traits you need to win the yield battle in the hot, windy, and arid environments so often found in the major corn producing areas of Kansas and Nebraska.
