BASF Canada giving away four trips to Hawaii in Win with AgCelence™ Contest

MISSISSAUGA, ON, March 20, 2013 /CNW/ - Four lucky growers in Western Canada will soon win a chance to say "Aloha" to sun and sand in the Win with AgCelence™ contest, courtesy of BASF Canada Inc. (BASF).

From now through April 30, 2013, western Canadian growers can visit www.agsolutions.ca/agcelence to watch a video to learn more about the science behind BASF's unique AgCelence benefits. There they can then enter for a chance to win one of four grand prize 10-day trips for two to Hawaii. Each grand prize is valued at $6,500.

"Growers who have used BASF fungicides that contain AgCelence benefits including HEADLINE^®, TWINLINE^® and new PRIAXOR™ DS have told us they consistently see greener leaves, better standability and higher yield potential," says Jason Leitch, Fungicide Brand Manager at BASF Canada. "This gives growers an opportunity to learn more about these unique AgCelence benefits for themselves and how they can help their crops achieve their full potential."

One grand prize will be awarded to a grower in each of the four regions BASF Canada operates in Western Canada, including Alberta, Manitoba, Northern Saskatchewan and Southern Saskatchewan. Each grower who enters the contest will also receive a free hat for participating.
