Dow AgroSciences Launches New Feature Web Site for the Farm Progress Show

Indianapolis, IN - July 22, 2008

Dow AgroSciences has launched a new Web site to promote its Ultimate Yield Tour at the 2008 Farm Progress Show. With weekly updates from the show site, podcasts and maps, www.UltimateYieldTour.com will offer up-to-date information to help growers get the most from the Dow AgroSciences exhibit at the Farm Progress Show, Aug. 26 to 28 in Boone, Iowa.

The Ultimate Yield Tour will highlight new products from Dow AgroSciences and Mycogen Seeds, including a new nitrogen stabilizer, eight-gene stacked corn, advanced crop protection products and innovations in herbicide tolerance traits. The tour will take place at the Dow AgroSciences exhibit, located on Central Avenue between First and Second Streets on the Farm Progress Show grounds.

"We've doubled our exhibit space at the 2008 Farm Progress Show, making way for even more demonstration plots," says Brent Stauffacher, Dow AgroSciences product manager. "We know that growers want to see results, so we are using this new Web site to promote our plot tour and encourage growers to experience our products and pipeline of new technologies firsthand."

"Kassie's Plot Blog" is one of the unique features of the Web site designed to help build anticipation for the show. Kassie Billerbeck, an Iowa State University student and agronomy intern for
Dow AgroSciences, will maintain a blog with weekly updates and photos of show site activity and crop status.

A map of the Farm Progress Show site, maps of Mycogen Seeds and Dow AgroSciences test plots in the area and driving directions also can be found on the new Web site. In the weeks leading up to the show, additional information will be added to the site, including podcast interviews with Dow AgroSciences experts on the products being showcased at the exhibit. A media room will feature Dow AgroSciences news releases relating to the show, as well as contact information for interview requests.
