SEED
Sanders has a long history in the sale, production, treatment and testing of seed. The company has developed solid relationships with the most reputable seed producers and suppliers, and its seedsmen have an unrivaled knowledge of seed varieties across the major crops grown in the Mid-South region, with an emphasis on cotton, soybeans, rice, corn, sorghum and wheat.

With sophisticated seed production facilities in Light and Stuttgart, Arkansas, Cleveland, Mississippi and Halls, Tennessee, Sanders also produces and manufactures proprietary seed brands in rice, soybeans, oats, wheat and wildlife food crops.

Sanders is a proud member of Horizon Ag, a joint venture company formed in concert with public breeding programs and BASF Corporation to produce and market Clearfield® rice varieties. These varieties are known for superior grain quality and disease resistance.

The company is pleased to work with some of its most sophisticated growers each year to arrange and administer professional research plots. Key learnings developed from such plots help Sanders lead the market in providing the highest quality seed to successful growers.

CROP PROTECTION PRODUCTS
Sanders offers a full range of chemicals to protect the investment farmers put into the ground, including herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, adjuvants, defoliants and plant growth regulators. For the convenience of its customers, it also offers bulk packaging, custom and variable rate application, warehousing and transportation services.

Prominent chemicals suppliers have recognized Sanders staff as being the best in the business in the fight against glyphosate resistance and in the provision of custom weed resistance programs. Sanders has been praised for its ‘FARM’N’ (Fall Applied Resistance Management Now) program, which it developed to raise awareness of the need to develop weed management plans well before the growing season.

Sanders was a founding member of the ag chemical buying group, Tenkoz, founded in 1983 and now the largest single distributor of crop protection chemicals in the United States. Tenkoz is comprised of 14 regional independent distribution companies with combined purchases representing 25% of the U.S. crop protection market. The net result is affordable, effective chemicals for farmers.

OPTIGRO®
Since inception, Sanders has been committed to the commercialization of new technologies, recognizing the confidence, profit-potential, and time-saving benefits they bring to its grower customers. With growers seeking to maximize the productivity and profitability of their acres, Sanders established OptiGro® with the goal of building the preferred, full-service ag technology resource to farmers worldwide. OptiGro® offers a complete, end-to-end solution, from product validation to input prescription and field data management. The platform, which continually evolves with the advance of technology in the marketplace, has proven itself to be highly accurate and scalable, helping farmers make better, faster decisions…and do more with less.

Growers engage OptiGro® for a wide variety of services, including precision soil sampling and analysis, variable rate planting, variable rate application of fertilizer and lime, GPS field mapping, aerial imagery, record-keeping, yield data processing, online data storage and access, and more. In its secure, proprietary database, OptiGro® houses several million field boundary acres and, for many farms, over a decade’s worth of field data. Trained OptiGro® support staff interpret this data in order to prescribe tailor-made solutions to growers, taking into account geography, farm characteristics, soil type, crop selection and desired risk tolerance. The enhanced visibility and stability that OptiGro® brings inspires confidence in all ag industry participants, including lenders, crop insurers and investors.

The ‘network effects’ of OptiGro® are considerable. The platform aggregates data across Sanders’ entire network, allowing it to spot relationships and trends. This provides significant predictive and benchmarking capabilities. Furthermore, OptiGro® routinely tests products in field trials, offering value not just to growers, but also to manufacturers seeking commercial results and validation.

OptiGro® was the proud recipient of the 2010 PrecisionAg Crop Adviser / Entrepreneur Award of Excellence for its role in helping farmers make better decisions. In addition, it has been recognized for its contribution to the environment, by facilitating a more efficient use of inputs overall and reducing run-off.
