North Dakota Farmer Drives To Victory In PRE-PARE Sweepstakes

Arysta LifeScience North America is pleased to announce that Larry Goettle from Donnybrook, North Dakota has won a new Polaris ATV, the grand prize in the PRE-PARE™ For The Season Sweepstakes.

Cary, NC (PRWEB) November 13, 2008 -- Arysta LifeScience North America is pleased to announce that Larry Goettle from Donnybrook, North Dakota has won a new Polaris ATV, the grand prize in the PRE-PARE™ For The Season Sweepstakes.

The good news came as a huge surprise when Larry and his wife, Charlene, came in from the field during harvest to pick up the phone message from Arysta LifeScience Sales Representative Monte Kubas.

Goettle had his ten-year-old son to thank. "My son was on me for two days to enter. So, I filled out the PRE-PARE contest card that came in the mail and entered. It was a surprise when the phone call came."

The Goettles picked up their new ATV at a recreational vehicle dealership in Minot. Charlene got to ride it first - from the store to the pickup where they loaded it. Larry says they'll do a "little bit of everything" with it from riding fence posts to checking weeds.

Entering the PRE-PARE sweepstakes also encouraged Goettle to consider using PRE-PARE said Kubas. "I've used EVEREST but not PRE-PARE," said Goettle. "But when I looked at that entry card I thought I'd look into PRE-PARE. I'd be interested in it in the future. We use glyphosate quite often."

Growers could enter the PRE-PARE Sweepstakes one of two ways," said Patrick Haikal, Herbicide product manager with Arysta LifeScience. They could enter online at the preparefortheseason.com website or by calling in. "We had a great response and were extremely pleased with the results. It just shows how more and more farmers are learning they can PRE-PARE for the season with a cleaner field."

PRE-PARE™ Herbicide gives your wheat field a cleaner clean when you pre-treat by mixing PRE-PARE with glyphosate at burndown. It's a powerful combination that provides the strongest, longest lasting control of most grassy and broadleaf weeds.
