Stauffer Seeds held
its annual meeting on July 24-26, 2007, and introduced their
2008 product line to field sales staff and dealers. In doing so,
Craig Williams, director of Midwest operations for Stauffer’s
parent company, said their focus on doing the right thing for
their customers remains their foremost commitment.
“We will continue to acquire the best genetics and traits
available for our customers’ farms,” Williams remarked. “We will
continue to insist on the highest quality seed we can provide as
well as research and promote new technologies and new germplasm
right for our customers.”
An independent, family-owned seed company, Stauffer has access
to technology from the industry’s leading providers. Their
independence also allows Stauffer to apply those technology
traits to outstanding germplasm resulting in unique combinations
unavailable from any other seed company.
“Our product lineup for 2008 includes quad, triple, dual, and
single trait corn hybrids along with conventional choices as
well,” stated Mike Smidt, director of sales and marketing at
Stauffer. “Our sales territory stretches from Minnesota to
Texas, Illinois to Colorado. Our customers can remain assured we
have the products they want to plant on their farms in the
combinations which give them control over their insect and weed
management programs.”
Williams explained the company’s philosophy and intentions with
the following illustration:
- Best Traits
+ Lousy Hybrid = Lousy Hybrid
- Good Hybrid
+ No Traits = Good Hybrid
- Right Hybrid
+ Right Traits = Great Hybrid for Our Customer
