This all-new, hands-on learning experience brings the topic of seed treatment to life on the Seed Expo show floor! All registrants are invited to participate in a new twist on the old ASTA seed treatment session of the past. This year, participants can learn the latest advancements in seed treatment directly from the companies that handle it. This special educational tour will begin in the Networking Area of the Seed Expo trade show floor at 10am on Wednesday, December 5 and will move on to nine stops of 10-minute presentations at a variety of exhibits, including the new displays from BASF, Bayer, Corteva Agriscience and Syngenta, plus a variety of other companies handling cleaning, conditioning, treatment, drying, and testing, to show you first-hand the best practices that will help you manage this vital concern. The session content will highlight three themes: keeping treatment on the seed, what’s new in seed treatment, and bringing it all together on the seed. This tour is open to the first 160 participants maximum and will be split into small groups for rotation around the exhibit presentations.
