“Through our offerings, we want to allow farmers to provide nutrients to plants whenever they are needed, whether that’s mostly early in the season or throughout the growth cycle.”
With products that are well established over the last decade and a stable base of farmer adoption, Ashachik says that the time has come for Verdesian to engage with organizations like AgGateway that are enabling the collaboration of progressive, like-minded industry leaders.
“We are at the stage now where we want to be a part of this community of companies,” he says. “We are looking to collaborate with organizations that share the same kind of values and outlook on the industry. We want to find better ways to use all the data being collected across the industry that that we or others collecting, and be able to help build standards that drive better business decisions on the farm field.”
