Meristem Crop Performance has appointed Matthew Deyle as Vice President of Business Development, strengthening its commercial presence across Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado. The experienced agribusiness professional will help farmers in these regions improve productivity, manage input costs and achieve better returns from their farming operations.

Deyle brings more than 25 years of experience in agribusiness, having worked directly with farmers and agricultural teams to improve crop production efficiency and input management.

Extensive Experience in Agribusiness

Before joining Meristem, Deyle served as a multi-location manager and agronomist with Nutrien Ag Solutions in south-central Nebraska. He also held positions with Cargill and Aurora Cooperative.

Throughout his career, he has developed expertise in crop nutrition, crop protection and practical agronomic decision-making. He graduated from Fort Hays State University in Kansas with a degree in agricultural business.

According to Meristem Founder and CEO Mitch Eviston, Deyle’s extensive experience working with growers and helping them make every input dollar count will support the company’s growth and farmer-focused strategy.

Focus on Cost Efficiency and Crop Performance

In his new role, Deyle will introduce Meristem’s crop input solutions to farmers across Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado, with a focus on improving farm profitability while addressing ongoing input cost challenges.

The company’s portfolio includes products and technologies designed to help growers improve crop performance and reduce input expenses.

Technology and Product Innovations

Meristem highlighted several solutions that Deyle will bring to growers:

• Bio-Capsule® Technology: Meristem’s patented technology platform for delivering live biological products directly in the field.
• Hopper Throttle® MaxStax: A soybean product supported by a $60-per-acre replant programme, as described in the company’s announcement.
• Upshift® C Pro: A concentrated starter fertilizer replacement solution that Meristem says can reduce costs by up to 50%.

These solutions reflect Meristem’s broader strategy of combining biological technologies, concentrated formulations and efficient crop input systems to help farmers produce more while controlling production costs.

Expanding Farmer-Centric Agricultural Solutions

The appointment is part of Meristem’s continued efforts to strengthen its regional presence and provide farmers with practical, cost-effective agricultural technologies. By bringing experienced agribusiness professionals into its commercial team, the company aims to improve access to innovative crop input solutions and strengthen relationships with growers.
