Knowledgeable Staff
As a farmer, I know we have many different challenges and many different variables that we deal with on a year-to-year basis. The year at hand may be wet, or it may be dry, or it may be cool, or excessively hot. The longer I am in the farm business, the more I recognize this state of constant change. The one element that remains the same is the soil that we have the privilege of stewardship over. A key ingredient in the success of Keystone Group Ag Seeds and our own farm operation is recognizing that this soil that we have to farm stays constant, and then in turn placing the appropriate genetics and the appropriate varieties on our ground and on our customers’ fields. Keystone Group Ag Seeds does not believe any other company on the East Coast can offer this kind of diversity, evaluation, and education.
