Agronomy Sciences Overview

Agronomy information is a key part of the services that customers receive when they buy Pioneer® brand seed products.

The Pioneer Agronomy Sciences team has been promoting advances in production agriculture for more than 30 years. To support farmers' growing thirst for practical management information, the Pioneer Agronomy Sciences staff has initiated a wide range of revolutionary services.

The popular publication, Walking Your Fields® newsletter, is distributed to customers regularly during the growing season across most of North America. One reason for its success is the field agronomists' daily contact with farmers.

Pioneer was also the first in the seed business to develop an on-line reference library containing information on common crop management advice. This library, referred to as the Agricultural Information System (AIS), contains information on crop management, animal nutrition and new products developed from biotechnology. Check with your Pioneer sales professional for more information on AIS.

With the business of agriculture becoming increasingly complex, the role of the agronomy sciences group has become even more important. Producing products in the most efficient manner will be the key to survival on today's farms and ranches.

As new technologies such as precision farming and products with herbicide and insect resistance are adapted by farmers, Pioneer agronomists are leading the way to transfer new management information to producers--as they have been for more than 30 years. Pioneer will continue to move forward to help producers meet future challenges.
