WHAT'S NEW

Good Afternoon,

The Bayer Fund Opportunity Scholarship Program is available to Canadian high school students who are enrolled in their final year of high school as of May 31, 2019 and eligible to graduate from high school in 2019. Those eligible for a scholarship must be planning to enroll at a Canadian post secondary institution (degree or diploma) in a first-year agriculture, food science or culinary program.

If you have applied for entry into a college or university, but have not yet been accepted, you can still apply for a Bayer Fund Opportunity Scholarship. However, if you are awarded a scholarship, you must provide an acceptance letter from your educational institution.

Successful applicants will each be awarded a scholarship valued at $1,500, based on demonstrated academic standards and leadership in the community. Selection will be made by an independent panel.

Good morning,

With all the struggles surrounding corn harvest this fall Dekalb has put together an Agronomic newsletter to help educate us on the different Diseases and Moulds affecting corn.

Attached is an info letter and an Agronomic Ratings Chart for our Dekalb Corn lineup.

Please take a look and understand how the environment has affected hybrids differently.

If you would like to discuss or help in understanding the news letter or agronomic chart please call one of our team and we will gladly help you thru the process.
