The Spring Rush: What Farmers Are Up Against
The Spring Rush: What Farmers Are Up Against “Farmers are always thinking about our products.” I’ll never forget those words, uttered by an old client of mine. She worked for a large life sciences company. We were launching a pre-emergence corn herbicide, to a market saturated with them. I thought she was joking. She wasn’t.
