The Seed for a Season contest in Eastern Canada is aimed at providing farmers with an opportunity to invest their money in a different way this year, from improving the profitability of their farm to going on a dream vacation.
“I’m really pleased with the success of the Seed for a Season contest. It was a great opportunity to give back to some lucky customers in a way that directly helps their farm operation,” says Collin Phillip, business director – Eastern Canada at DuPont Pioneer. ”
