Jun 19, 2014

During their Ag Media Summit last week, BASF announced several new investments and products that will benefit soybean producers.

Dr. Andreas Kreimeyer, board of director member, Dr. Peter Eckes, president plant science and Markus Heldt, president of crop protection along with many other company executives and staff discussed invocations that will provide additional tools in the future. This includes an investment of more than $270 million to expand herbicide production facilities in Beaumont, Texas, the addition of more in-field experts and the launch of several new products including an advanced Dicamba formulation.

During the meeting, North Carolina’s State Executive Charles Hall also participated in a panel discussion about soybean production in Brazil.
