Did you know Henry A. Wallace’s interest in agriculture and science began as a teenager. He took seed from an Iowa corn show in 1903 and conducted a side-by-side comparison. That experiment sparked an interest in corn breeding and the eventual development of the Pioneer Hi-Bred Seed Company. This is Pioneer’s 100th anniversary year. When you plant your seed corn in 2026, check to see if yours is treated GOLD. You may win an immersive seed journey experience, including stops at Pioneer’s R&D facility in Johnston, Iowa, and seed operations in Hawaii in January 2027.
