Retailer Helps Customers Save on the Corteva Acre

Helping farmers succeed is a favorite part of the job for Andy Pederson, owner of Pederson Seed & Services in Hiawatha, Kansas. Pederson has been selling Pioneer® seed for more than 25 years.
“I’ve always enjoyed helping people, and I’ve always bled Pioneer,” he says. “I grew up on a farm, and my parents planted Pioneer. My wife and I started this business when our children were young, and we got to watch them grow up in the business.”
He also likes his job because no day is the same.
“Along with Pioneer seed, we sell Corteva crop protection products, manage an aerial application business and do grid sampling. There’s no typical day for us,” Pederson says.
He takes pride in helping customers find the right products and practices to maximize the Corteva acre.
“The Corteva offering is incredibly valuable to us as a business and even more so to our customers,” Pederson says. “Corteva has a great portfolio of well-rounded products that fit most of the acres our customers plant.”
Pederson encourages customers to take advantage of the TruChoice® offer for maximum savings on their crop protection products.
“TruChoice provides a lot of value in this era of tighter margins we find ourselves operating in,” he says. “But customers can save money when they plant a good-quality seed product and protect it with a great herbicide program.”
He says the funds come in especially handy for growers who find themselves struggling with weed or disease control at the end of the growing season.
“TruChoice funds provide flexibility and help customers manage finances even when they may be up against their line of credit,” Pederson says. “It helps us keep our customers in the best economic position possible. That’s part of our job as Pioneer and Corteva representatives.”
More growers are seeing the benefits of the TruChoice offer every year. Last year, more than 33,000 farmers participated and saved up to 10% on more than 100 proven crop protection products via two options:
- TruChoice prepay — Regardless of seed brand, growers who fund a prepay account with a minimum of $5,000 by Feb. 28, 2025,1 will earn 10% in upfront savings on Corteva Agriscience crop protection products.
- TruChoice financing — Growers can finance approved purchases of crop protection product through Corteva Agriscience subsidiary PHI Financial Services, Inc. Cash can be applied to a registered prepay account with the TruChoice offer to avoid needing loan approval.

1 Dates may vary by location. Any amount of funds toward your Corteva Agriscience™ crop protection products can be financed or prepaid; however, a minimum of at least $5,000 of qualifying products must be reached to receive the crop protection prepay savings.
