Matt Sell, Country Partners Cooperative
After 30 years as a chemist and independent business owner, Matt Sell made a career change to agronomy sales with Country Partners Cooperative, a full-service cooperative serving farmers throughout central Nebraska.
Sell prides himself in serving farmers in the way he wanted to be treated as a business owner.
“I had my own company for 20 years. I appreciated honesty from my suppliers, and that’s how I approach working with our farmer customers,” Sell says. “If I don’t think a product will help them, I don’t recommend it.”
Providing sound recommendations and tremendous service are characteristics that he believes set Country Partners Cooperative apart from other suppliers in the area. Timely delivery of fertilizer and other products and timely, accurate crop protection application are two of the most important aspects of the co-op’s service approach.
“As we all know, once the weeds start growing, you need to get on them early. The products you recommend must be effective. They must kill weeds,” Sell says. “Weeds are like having too many people at the dinner table. They keep the crop from getting all the nutrition it needs, and that’s going to hurt yield.”
To keep fields weed-free, Sell often recommends Resicore® REV herbicide. The efficacy on tough weeds, tank-mix flexibility and combination of three active ingredients top his reasons for choosing the product as his go-to for preemergence weed control in corn.
“Resicore REV gives you three things. It gives you tank-mix compatibility with UAN and ATS. The encapsulated acetochlor means the crop safety is great, and the three different active ingredients give us fantastic control of emerged weeds plus residual control that takes the weed control out around 28 days.
“The way that Resicore REV has performed in the past leaves me wanting to recommend it for my customers in the future,” Sell says.
