We Farm Too
For 92 years, McKillip Seeds has been helping farmers throughout our region make the most of every acre. That’s more than nine decades of learning our soils, understanding our growing conditions and putting new genetics and technologies to work in the field.
But our experience isn’t just behind a desk or in a seed catalog. We’re farmers too. We understand the decisions, challenges and opportunities that come with every growing season because we face them ourselves. Four generations later, that perspective still shapes the way we do business—farmer to farmer, season after season.
Your Seed Products
Seeds are our specialty. We start with industry-leading genetics and proven technologies, then select and test products for the soils and growing conditions right here in our region.
That local knowledge matters. It helps us recommend corn, soybeans, wheat and alfalfa varieties with the yield potential, agronomic characteristics and performance to fit your farm. Combined with rigorous seed quality standards and proven seed treatments, our goal is simple: give every seed the strongest possible start and every acre the opportunity to perform.
Your Trusted Partner
Great seed is only part of what we bring to the farm. What truly sets McKillip Seeds apart is the relationship that comes with it.
From yield planning and product selection to field-by-field placement and in-season support, our team is here to answer questions, share what we know and help you make confident decisions. We’re seedsmen, experts and farmers—but most of all, we’re people who value the relationships we build with the farmers we serve.
That’s what it means to be Rooted in Relationships.
Your Profitability
At the end of the season, performance matters. We want to help you grow more bushels, make better use of every input and improve the return from every acre.
Our Maximum Profit System™ brings together locally selected seed, sound agronomic practices and season-long management to identify opportunities from planning and planting through harvest. It’s not a one-size-fits-all program. It’s a practical, field-by-field approach built around your operation, your goals and your profitability.
Because your success is how we measure ours.
Your Regional Advantage
McKillip Seeds serves farmers across Indiana, Ohio and Michigan with the best of both worlds—deep knowledge of the region and the resources, technology and support to help you get more from every acre.
We know the soils, growing conditions and challenges of this area because this is where we live and farm, too. That keeps us close enough to understand your operation, responsive when you need us, and equipped to deliver the products and support you expect throughout the season.
Genuine

“AgVenture Qrome® hybrids are the product of an innovative new technology that allows us to unlock the yield potential of our industry-leading germplasm while delivering products with superior insect control and agronomic traits. The technology behind Qrome® will also deliver new and higher yielding products to growers faster than ever before.
