Why would a grower consider adding alfalfa as a rotation crop?  We are joined by two special guests, Glenda Gehl and Emily Meccage, for this episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies.  Both Glenda and Emily are joining us from FGI, Forage Genetics International, which is a subsidiary of Land O’Lakes and has been an industry leader within the forage industry for over 30 years.  Glenda serves as the President of FGI and leads the R&D efforts for the crop inputs business, and Emily is the Director of R&D and Innovation.

Both Glenda and Emily will share about their career paths and how they ended up working for FGI.  You’ll learn more about FGI and how they work to bring the best technology and genetics to the market and the improvements that have been seen specifically in alfalfa over the last few decades. You’ll learn about the benefits of having alfalfa added as a rotational crop and how it can benefit the health of your soil and even decrease certain pests.  “We make sure that when we’re releasing a variety, it’s the best of the best and it’s gonna perform the way we say it will.”
