	Thank you for choosing The Scoular Company. We appreciate your business!


	*Biotech Corn Update*
	*ATTENTION* Please read this if you are or are intending to plant Syngenta Agrisure RW Corn. Over the past several weeks, we have seen a number of elevators and grain companies change their acceptance policy regarding Agrisure RW hybrids and stacks containing Agrisure RW. This corn has not been approved for use in export markets, and will not be accepted by a number of grain companies, ethanol plants, or rail transportation companies. As we serve these markets and do not want to take the risk of contamination, we are asking you to let us know if you planted this corn. At this point in time we WILL NOT ACCEPT this corn at any of our elevator locations. If you have this corn we ask that you segregate it on the farm and we will do our best to help you steward this corn to the approved markets. If you have any questions, please contact the Hancock Office. Thank You.
