Pioneer Hi-Bred and Dow AgroSciences announced today that they’ve received U. S. regulatory approvals for Herculex XTRA Insect Protection. Growers can look for this trait in corn hybrids for 2006 planting. Of course this was produced and distributed as a Talking News Release!

First the product announcements come out in droves, then it’s people announcements. Iron Solutions has someone new to lead their sales efforts.

Valent just announced some organizational changes that sure look like they’re adding a lot to someone’s work load! As the head man Trevor certainly had a full time job. Now he’s taking on all field sales? Wow.

Here’s an announcement from Syngenta that is filled with words I love, like “burndown.” That’s what I want to do to weeds, burn them down! Even better this new formulation is more “user-friendly.”

This is a two blog post. That means that it will appear on AgWired and on World Dairy Diary. Why? Because these folks did a great media relations event at World Dairy Expo and they have new product news.

Hello you wine drinkers. You fall into one of six basic groups. Bet you didn’t know that. Constellation Wines has announced the results of Project Genome, one of the largest consumer research projects ever conducted by the wine industry.

Speaking of teaming up deals, here’s another one. Pioneer is working together with DFS, Inc. on a grain testing pilot on animal nutrition.

Monsanto is out making it happen as they say. This time teaming up with the Solae Company on a soybean project. I can only “imagine” how big this deal will be!

You know you’ve got the job when they have you send out your own news release! Besides that Andrea has been busy getting the word out for Select Sires.
