Today’s seed industry is more competitive than ever.  On any given day, you have multiple companies telling you their seed is the best. Many of these companies are even owned by the same parent company, leaving you more confused and exhausted than ever before. 

As a privately-owned company, Stine takes a different approach to the market. We do not use an office full of marketing gurus who twist numbers to say what they want. We take a simple approach of performing extensive research, in-house, in field, and with independent companies such as F.I.R.S.T. (Farmers Independent Research Strip Trials). This type of approach to the market allows our company representatives, including dealers, to have full confidence in the product they are providing to meet your individual needs.
