RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C.,
June 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/
-- Growers around the country are invited to visit a local
Showcase Days event and learn about the most recent advances in
managing weed resistance; sudden death syndrome in soybeans;
nematode pressure; and other agronomic challenges. The events will
also feature seed traits, varieties and hybrids.
Showcase Days consists of a series of events scheduled in fields
around the country, tailored to provide growers with solutions for
their agronomic challenges. Sponsored by Bayer, specialists and
local agronomists will be on site to discuss problems and provide
solutions, specific to local growers' fields, soil profiles and
environmental conditions.
"Growers have a lot of information to absorb every year, as they
plan for the next season," said Bayer Marketing Manager,
Malin Westfall. "These Bayer
Showcase Days help growers wade through a lot of that information
in a concise way. We invite growers to visit us, see products at
work and get honest answers to their questions."
These events run from July through September and demonstrate the
success of various Bayer products used on corn, soybeans, cereals,
canola and cotton crops. Growers can register for their local
Showcase Days event at www.showcaseplottours.bayer.us. This site
also includes information for locations and events.
Attendees can also enter the Real Yield Sweepstakes onsite for a
chance to win prizes like a 500 acre field of LibertyLink for
soybeans or cotton.
