Here’s the new logo for Mycogen Seeds. It’s their way of showing the close “alignment” with Dow AgroSciences.
Industry Leader Eileen Shay
Eileen Shay is now a leader. Actually as senior account executive for The Packer I’d guess she already was one. But now she’s graduated from United Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Association’s Produce Industry Leadership Program.
