CCGA Screening Grain Entrapment Movie 'Silo'

The new movie 'Silo' is being screened online Friday and Monday by the Canadian Canola Growers Association.
 
The film is about grain entrapment.
 
Producer Sam Goldberg talked about the movie.
 
"We like to say it's inspired by true stories. The original idea that sparked this movie was a grain bin entrapment that happened in Illinois in 2010. That accident, three teenage boys were trapped in the grain and two of them passed away. That got national headlines in America and the director of the film...heard about that and that's really what inspired his idea and then he brought it to me."

In this conversation with Amanda Patin, North America Business Development Director for US Crop Science at SGS, we dig into what seed testing really reveals, far beyond germination and a lab report. From seed vigor and mechanical damage to stress performance and pathogen pressure, Patin explains how deeper testing can help companies differentiate their seed, protect value, and drive real return on investment.

If seed testing is something you only think about when you have to, this discussion might change how you see and use it.
