Omega-3 Canola Contracts Provide Growers Solutions
Fort Benton’s Ben Brimlow advises growers to keep up strategies that work and incorporate strategies that work better. As a Field Sales Manager, North Central Montana-based Ben Brimlow supports growers by providing solutions through Nuseed Omega-3 canola contracts.
“Nuseed’s Omega-3 canola contracts provide value to the farm in many ways including improved soil health from crop rotation diversification, and excellent weed management with the glufosinate tolerant trait,” says Brimlow. “Producers will also benefit from basis contracts with flexible pricing options, local agronomic and stewardship support, on-farm crop pick up, a force majeure contract and a long history of delivering on commitments.”
Farmers – specifically in Brimlow’s focus area of Montana – have faced significant environmental and economic challenges this past year, including record drought, heavy grasshopper pressure and high input costs. In the midst of these challenges, Brimlow has worked through Nuseed to provide drought-resilient canola varieties for dryland producers, competitive contract premiums, timely payments and force majeure contract clause to offer additional protection for producers.
When working with growers, Brimlow stresses the importance of keeping in mind that every farm is a unique operation with its own objectives, strategies and resources.
“Solutions should only be offered after needs are clearly identified; that comes with asking questions and understanding the operation,” he explains. Brimlow’s passion for canola and success in the field stems from his respect and love of working with growers. He understands the difficulties associated with farming and works to make the lives of growers easier in the process.
“There are many reasons I enjoy working with growers. Farming isn’t simply ‘a job’ — it’s a way of life that requires passion and a can-do mentality,” he adds. “Many Montana producers are fourth generation, working the same ground their ancestors settled, respecting those that came before while adopting new technologies and strategies to steward the land for the next generation.“Customers can look forward to a triedand- true partnership with strong on-ground support.”
