The Bayer CropScience United Potato Partners sponsorship is one that furthers sustainable agriculture and fosters a strong world food supply. Bayer CropScience, an international crop science company, is a main presenter at United Potato Partner seminars being held in major potato growing regions. The free seminars are an opportunity for growers to learn the economic tools needed to help them better target prospective markets and meet customers’ needs. This partnership not only underwrites the costs of the seminars, but should provide additional income to the chapter co-ops and participating PMANA co-ops as determined by the UPGA board of directors based upon recommendations of the United Potato Partners oversight committee. Your local United co-op leaders will provide further information as appropriate throughout the year.

A benefit of membership in United is the United Potato Partners Program that creates savings on the growers agriculture related purchases. Corporations that sign an agreement with United receive an immediate inside track for promoting their products to growers.
