GREENSBORO, N.C., USA, –
Syngenta in the U.S. offers an innovative pipeline of global agriculture technologies, but it realizes that local conditions require local expertise. That is why Syngenta is pleased to offer more than 60 Grow More™ Experience site locations across North America this year. These sites offer a unique educational resource where retailers and Syngenta Seed Advisors™ can see the company’s products in action and learn how to address local production challenges with customers.
With 16 new crop protection products and an expansion of its seeds offerings, Syngenta is able to showcase these innovations at this year’s locations, including trials featuring Acuron
® corn herbicide and Orondis
® and Trivapro
® fungicides.
Scott Heinrich, an agronomy sales manager with Farmers Cooperative in Dorchester, Nebraska, has seen first-hand how the York, Nebraska, Grow More Experience site has benefitted him and his customers. “The site brings science to life in a real-world setting,” he said. “It lets you see the whole system in action in the field and put things into a dollars-and-cents perspective.”
Syngenta designs each Grow More Experience site with local growing conditions and production practices in mind. As a result, attendees have a front-row seat to trials showcasing the best new Syngenta technologies that can bring maximum value to farmers’ fields. The sites also demonstrate how growers can use existing Syngenta products more effectively.
Each site focuses on local crops, including corn and soybeans in the Midwest, cotton and rice in the South, vegetables in the East and specialty crops in the Western U.S. The sites reflect the integration of agronomic principles, Syngenta genetics, Seedcare solutions and crop protection products.
