Diversity Seen Across the Region
Hefty Seed Business Development Lead Jeff Preston serves Minnesota and the Dakotas. At the Ag PhD Field Day in Baltic, South Dakota, Preston said his geography covers a variety of conditions. “It’s very diverse agriculture with sugarbeets, dry edible beans, potatoes and more so our people have to know recommendations because of carryover and things like that in chemistry,” said Preston. “Down here it’s predominantly corn and beans.” Preston, who is based in Hillsboro, North Dakota, said soil types also vary greatly across the region.”The (Red River) Valley is very unique and we work all the way out to the Montana border. We go from irrigation to heavy clay/high magnesium soils to bull sand. So it’s very diverse and it takes different agronomy skills and expertise to work with farmers.”
