“I’m happy to have Dustin join our team. His natural ability to understand the needs of farmers combined with his entrepreneurial approach and passion for potatoes will complement our growing team of seed potato professionals,” says Jeff Scramlin, President of HZPC Americas Corp. “Dustin will be acting as our technical liaison and he’ll be collaborating directly with our breeders in Holland to trial and introduce new potato varieties bred specifically to help growers achieve the next level of success in the North American potato industry.”
“I grew up on a potato farm in Idaho and am happy to be returning to my roots,” Wageman said. “I look forward to managing our seed potato portfolio and in bringing our knowledge and innovations to the HZPC value-chain partners in North America. As HZPC celebrates it’s 125th anniversary this year, I’m excited to join their worldwide team at this time. Their rich traditions, dedication to the potato segment growth, and excellence in research, breeding and seed production are all things that I’m happy to be a part of.”
