Locally, those who sign up
will be helping to support
PMCGA’s activities, such as
Corn Talk, the annual Pennsyl
vania Crops Conference, and
local com promotion activities.
The PMCGA board of direc
tors have also developed a

eration with DuPont. This prog
ram is targeted at recruiting
new members of PMCGA. Any
Pennsylvania com grower who
joins PMCGA for three years
for the first time is eligible to
receive a free four-acre sample
of Accent herbicide ($lOO retail
value).
The offer is available to any
one who grows more than 100
acres of com, has not been a
member of PMCGA before,
and who has not received an
Accent sample in the past.
There is a limit of one sample
per fanning operation. In addi
tion, new three-year members
can elect to participate in the
PMCGA Membership Incen
tive Program and elect to try a
free unit of seed com from one
of the participating companies
