More services, less risk
Article Abstract:
Olsen's Crop Service, an agricultural chemical retailer based in Auroraville, WI, has joined AgExcellence LLC, an alliance of independent retailers. According to company manager Paul Olsen, one reason for joining AgExcellence is its access to services and markets that would be very risky for an independent dealership to enter. Another is AgExcellence's Premier Crop Service, which provides testing and data collection needed to grow and certify value-added crops.
