2012 US Ag Conference Wrap Up

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

For nearly two decades progressive thinkers in the Ag Biz have been gathering, sharing, and pushing the envelope on crop production. This unique event was initiated by Jerry Stoller in 1993 and has been sponsored by the Stoller Group ever since.

Record attendance at the 2012 event indicates that the search for understanding and knowledge continues across the globe. Crop consultants, researchers, and progressive growers, from China to Canada, participated in the discussion.

Prestigious Ag Research Universitites like University of Illinois, North Carolina State, Penn State, and University of Florida ( to name a few) shared their findings from 2011 trials. Crop consultants reported on everything from production achievements on corn and soybeans to quality and size enhancements of pineapples. Stress management, crop health, disease resistance and fruit uniformity are  all part of the larger discussion.

The mission of the Conference is to share findings in an effort to learn and push production to the next level.  Attendees are welcome to listen and learn…but are also the presenters.

Watch for upcoming posts on specific discoveries from 2011!
