About Us

We are an independent, family-owned seed company with a different approach to help you produce more bushels.

A Different Approach to Produce more Bushels

At AgVenture Wehmeyer Seed, we are dedicated to providing seed products that surpass industry-required standards, as well as leading-edge genetics and technology. Our seed product portfolio — corn, soybeans, and sorghum — provides access to the industry’s most diverse inbred combinations and elite germplasm pools to deliver maximum yields on every acre.

How are we different?

  • Localized Product Decisions

    TRUE LOCALIZATION means that our products are tested numerous years, in multiple tiers, by Corteva Agriscience and AgVenture, so you are confident you have the right products for your fields.

  • Higher focus on Seed Enhancements

    We know only HIGH-QUALITY SEED can produce a high-yielding harvest, so our extensive range of tests surpass industry-required seed quality standards and AgVenture evaluates the results of these tests prior to selecting seed. Plus, we have one of the industry’s best seed treatments, providing the highest level of disease, insect, and pathogen control.

  • Truly Local Ownership, Knowledge and Support

    We are 100% invested in our area and locally-owned businesses. YEAR-ROUND SUPPORT includes planting guidance from our AgVenture Yield Specialists and post-emergence evaluations of Net Effective Plant Stands (NEPS) to generate more full value ears.
