Two additional companies join as Annual Conference major sponsors
Indianapolis -- Two additional companies have joined the roster of major sponsors for the 69th Annual Conference of Indiana Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs). The three-day event will be held January 9-11, 2012 at the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown.
Major sponsors provide financial contributions of at least $1,500 or higher. Indiana Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts (IASWCD) President Ray McCormick emphasizes how important this support is to providing a quality conservation conference.
The Association welcomes Saddle Butte Ag Inc., a new sponsor,
as our Awards Banquet patron. The banquet, to be held on Tuesday, Jan. 10, will honor statewide conservation award winners from around the state.
Saddle Butte Ag is an Oregon-based, family owned company specializing in the Midwest cover crop market. The company also produces a large percentage of the products that they market. They have several roots back to homesteads in the area, including one farm that is in the sixth generation of family operators.
Saddle Butte Ag Inc. is the leader in cover crops for the Midwest farmer. Their  agronomists were involved with the early trial work done in Indiana helping manage relations between Indiana producers and the Oregon Ryegrass Commission. Currently Saddle Butte Ag markets under the Bio Till logo. The premier products of the line is Bounty Annual Ryegrass followed by Enricher Cover Crop Radish. In addition they market the Nitro 80/20 Mix, 3-Way Cover Crop Mix, Buckeye Mix, Soil Buster Mix, Bounty Annual Ryegrass, Crimson Clover, Enricher Cover Crop Radish, Phacelia, Cahaba Vetch, Peas and Triticale.
