Description

Description: The current supply chain delays are causing problems with manufacturing and construction projects all over the world.  When parts and machines are delayed, how do you operate your business?  When existing systems breakdown, how do you put your system back in operation?   These become critical decisions that we have not faced before.  Long lead times do not appear to be going away, how does this affect the seed industry in the future.

Why it Matters to the Seed Industry: The seed industry works on a specific schedule based on when the growing crop is ready to be harvested.  This has to happen at a specific time for the best seed quality and yield.  Waiting for a delayed part is not an option.  Having ways to work within the current supply chain schedules is key to the seed industry.
