Stine - 30 Years of Performance Seed - 2

1871 William and Sarah Stine (with oldest child Ira Cloyd) arrive in Adel, Iowa, from Pennsylvania. The original farm was 160 acres with only 30 tillable acres at the time. 1964 Harry Stine, President of Stine Seed Farm, joins his father, Bill, in the soybean cleaning venture. 1894 Ira Cloyd marries Lydia Sheaffer. The couple will have 4 children — all boys — including Harry’s father, Bill (William). All four boys farm together as I.C. Stine and Sons until shortly after World War Two. 1965 Harry becomes interested in soybean breeding after finding some unusual soybean plants in a farm field, and goes on to found Stine Seed Farms. Harry loved to farm, but also recognized additional profit opportunities by breeding, developing and subsequently growing newer, higher-yielding soybean lines. He began breeding and “yield checking” soybean lines (previously only done by universities), and he came to understand (while actually weighing varieties himself ) what a conventional breeding program could bring to the soybean industry and the U.S. grower. 1934 Bill and Roselba Stine move to the farm where Stine Seed Farm would eventually be located. Extreme droughts in 1934 and 1936 make for a rough start. Early 1950s Bill Stine founds Stine Seed Farm, cleaning certified oats and public variety soybean seeds with a portable cleaner. 1950s Bill wins the Dallas County Soybean Yield Contest in 1955 and 1957.
