Syngenta extends ordering deadline

Syngenta, Golden Valley, Minn., has extended the deadline for soybean orders that qualify for its 2007 AgriEdge Soybean Grain Premium Program until March 1. Soybean growers who want the cash incentives offered through the Grain Premium Program must place their orders for NK Brand Roundup ReadySoybeanswith Garst, Golden Harvest or NK Brand seed dealers to qualify. Growers are eligible for premiums of up to 21 cents per bushel on their first 60 bushels per acre on each qualifying soybean order.

"Syngenta extended the order deadline to build on the early excitement from growers," said Brad Wiersum, head of soybean marketing, Syngenta.

By enrolling in the AgriEdge Soybean Grain Premium Program, growers who make a qualifying purchase of NK Brand Roundup ReadySoybeansreceive a premium of nine cents for every bushel the beans yield this fall, up to a maximum of 60 bushels per acre.

The premium can also extend beyond the seed. Growers who use CruiserMaxx Beans seed treatment and qualifying Syngenta insecticides, herbicides and fungicides to optimize the genetic potential of NK Brand Roundup ReadySoybeansqualify for additional premiums. These payments are three cents per bushel for each of the Syngenta products used and can total as much as 12 cents per bushel in addition to the nine cents on each bushel of NK BrandSoybeansharvested.

The AgriEdge Grain Premium Program is available to new purchasers of NK Brand Roundup Ready soybean seed who purchase a minimum of 200 units. Growers already using NK Brand Roundup ReadySoybeansqualify if they increase their purchase by at least 200 units over last year.

Growers can learn more about the Grain Premium program and other strategies for maximizing soybean production profitability at one of the 12 AgriEdge Soybean Symposiums that are taking place across the Midwest in January and February. The AgriEdge Soybean Symposiums will be held in Indiana, Nebraska, Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, South Dakota, Missouri and Iowa.
