Geographic growth in AgVenture, Inc (AVI), market territory has driven the company to a broad expansion of their alfalfa product offerings. Through a new supplier arrangement, the Kentland, Indiana based network of Regional Seed Companies now has more than 50 percent greater selection of top quality, top performing alfalfa hybrids and varieties available to producers.

AVI Product Manager Jeff Shaner said, “A new relationship with our suppliers allows us for the first time to supply adapted alfalfa seed products over an extremely broad geography effectively. With AgVenture’s recent expansions, we now provide alfalfa to producers from Kansas to North Carolina, from Mississipi to Minnesota. We needed this incredible access to a range of alfalfa maturities to meet producers’ needs across the country. We are now able to provide highly productive, leading products across all major zones.”

In addition to the broader geography, Shaner points out specific advantages in the new AgVenture alfalfa product line up. “Our ability to offer AgVenture RoundUp Ready® alfalfa brings significant value to beef and dairy producers.
