AgVenture's facility in Chesaning has a new agricultural yield specialist, Steven Bohn.
AgVenture is an Indiana-based company with a division in Michigan since 2009, and provides a network for independently-owned seed companies to operate under.
Bohn is originally from Freeland, and has a long and impressive resume in the seed industry; he has been in the business for more than 20 years, and works as a consultant with Hilleshog Beetseed, a division of Syngenta. He also has been an agriculturalist for Monitor Sugar Co.
He will serve growers in the Thumb region of mid-Michigan, according to AgVenture.
"I'm excited about the opportunity to work with AgVenture of Michigan. While they are a relatively new name in the area, AgVenture is very well established and highly respected--and is firmly seated among the country's top ten seed companies in market share," Bohn says. "I feel like corn and soybean farmers in this area stand to benefit from AgVenture's ability to access seed from multiple platforms. Beyond that, AgVenture of Michigan is committed to working with growers one-on-one to help them get the most profitability out of every acre."
Bohn is a graduate of Western Michigan University, with a degree in agriculture with a minor in business.
