The agriculture industry today is under increasing pressure to meet the growing demand for food production while conforming to tighter regulations and adhering to responsible and sustainable management practices.  At the center of this challenge is the reduction of dust that results from high-tech, high-volume planting and which has been cited as a factor in the decline in the bee population worldwide.  This presentation focuses on innovative seed applied technologies that will help growers increase yield while improving planting efficiency and reducing harmful dust.  These products will play a major role in creating a more productive agriculture industry with improved product stewardship, and will help growers and seed companies utilize agrochemicals in the most responsible and effective manner.
