Santa Maria, CA., June 3, 2025 — Tozer announced it will participate in the 2025 American Seed Trade Association (ASTA) Leadership Summit, scheduled for June 8–11 in Washington, D.C.
The annual event brings together leaders from across the seed industry for discussions focused on policy, innovation, and leadership development. The summit will include a day of direct advocacy on Capitol Hill, where participants will meet with lawmakers to share key concerns and priorities impacting the seed sector.
“At Tozer, we know innovation isn’t just about what happens on the field, it’s also about showing up where decisions are made,” said Kraig Kuykendall, General Manager of Tozer. “This summit is an important way we bring our expertise and voice to the national conversation.”
The summit offers attendees the opportunity to engage with congressional leaders and policy experts on issues shaping the future of agriculture. Tozer representatives said the event reinforces the company’s commitment to both seed innovation and policy engagement.
“This summit is a great opportunity to elevate the issues that matter most to our growers,” added Anthony Stevenson, Area Sales Representative. “Meeting directly with policymakers allows us to connect the dots between our work in the field and the legislation that affects it.”
