WORK HARD. PLAY HARD: Wyffels Hybrids ended their pollination season with a party for all seasonal help on August 2, 2022. Pollinators enjoyed pizza, Kona Ice and tie dying their new Wyffels Research Team t-shirts.
TEAM WORK: Every summer, Wyffels Hybrids counts on seasonal employees to pollinate their research plots. Pollination is a critical part of hybrid development. Wyffels would like to thank the 100 seasonal employees who showed up and worked hard to help bring future high-performing products to the Central Corn Belt. (Not all team members pictured.)
