Last season, Agricen's product technology helped some of the highest-yielding corn growers in America take home a winning title in the National Corn Growers Association's 2020 [National Corn Yield Contest](https://ncga.com/get-involved/national-corn-yield-contest).

A total of 6 national and 20 state winners used at least one product containing Agricen's biocatalyst technology in 2020. Among them were [Don Stall](https://blog.agricen.com/blog/top-corn-producers-used-accomplish-lm-extract-pba-titan-xc-ncga-corn-yield-contest) of Charlotte, Michigan, who was the top-yielding grower overall in the contest, [Kevin, Shawn, Nikia and Rhylan Kalb](https://blog.agricen.com/blog/accomplish-lm-helps-couple-win-two-corn-yield-contest-categories-ncga) of Dubois, Indiana, who took national wins across three categories, and Leonard Truszkowski of Stewartsville, New Jersey, who also placed nationally.

The biocatalyst-based products represented in the top growers' programs were [Accomplish LM](https://www.agricen.com/products/accomplish-lm), [Titan XC](https://cropfertility.com/titan-xc/), [Extract PBA](https://www.agricen.com/products/extract-pba), [Prologue](https://getgrowingwithnutrien.ag/micronutrients/?tab=prologue), [Levitate](https://getgrowingwithnutrien.ag/phosphate-solutions/?tab=levitate) and [NexBlu](https://info.agricen.com/watch-sidedressing-nitrogen-for-maximum-yields-webinar). All are exclusively available from Loveland Products though [Nutrien Ag Solutions](https://www.nutrienagsolutions.com/).

Grower Don Stall came in first place, nationally, in the Conventional Irrigated category with a yield of 476.9052 bu/acre, which was also the overall highest yield in the 2020 contest.

> "*Titan and Accomplish...turn nutrients into an available, soluble form so we can take them* up," says Don.* "It obviously works. You can see it, when you run the combine across the field and you weigh it. The results speak for themselves.*"

The Corn Belt's first place national winner in the Conventional Non-Irrigated Category was Kevin Kalb, with a yield of 385.4405 bu/acre.

> "*When I talk about raising, potentially, the biggest crop we have, I need to get as much phosphorus as I can into the plant. Titan makes that possible,*" Kevin says.

Kevin's wife, Shawn Kalb, also took home a first place national win in the No-Till Non-Irrigated category in the Corn Belt (329.0569 bu/acre), while Kevin and Shawn's children, Rhylan and Nikia, each placed second nationally in the Conventional Non-Irrigated (345.9045 bu/acre) and Strip, Min, Mulch, Ridge-Till Non-Irrigated (323.7572 bu/acre) categories in the Corn Belt states, respectively.
