Subject: RE: The largest independent


AgReliant is the largest independent seed company today (that is not owned by pharmaceutical or chemical companies). They are farmers and corn breeders working to create their own germplasm. Yes, the ownership is french (limagrain cooperative - owned and operated by farmers) and KWS (owned and operated by farmers), but all the employees and contacts you have here in the US are american employees (500+ at last count). Companies have to be global in scope to survive today if they are doing their own breeding, testing and research. We're proud to be part of the largest independent company that is owned and operated by farmers, for farmers. We can choose the best traits (be it yieldgard, herculex or any others) and combine them with our superior germplasm. It's a great position to be in.
