Thompson and Sons Ltd. continue to take pride in their ability to provide farm producers with a wide range of supplies and services. Qualified personel make recommendations on marketing, soil tests, pes- ticides, fertilizer blends and application. In 1924, Wesley G. Thompson had the foresight to see that Ontario ag- riculture would one day play a major role in Canadian grain trade. With a single elevator and feed mill, and a solid determination to improve market- ing and farm services to Ontario farmers, W.G. "Tommy" Thompson opened the doors to what has become one of the province's most promi- nent and progressive agribusinesses. Today with the third generation of Thompsons operating the business, the firm has is elevators and grain processing facilities from Coatsworth in the southwest to Pontypool northeast of Toronto plus research stations at Morpeth, Nairn, Exeter and Monkton. The Hensall branch headed by manager Dale Good is one of the largest of the 13 branches along with the head office in Blenheim. Good says his facility in Hensall now employs 45 area persons. Farmers find Thompson branches are vital sources of inputs as well as information. The company organizes seminars throughout the winter to bring groups of Farmers together with experts in soil nutrition, plant genet- ics, crop protection and markets. Today, W.G. Thompson and Sons Limited modern branch elevators re- ceive, process and ship grain and beans. They retail seed, fertilizer and ag- ricultural chemicals, and specialize in domestic and export marketing of grain, beans and seed. Exceptional service has always been the trademark of the family-owned business and the third generation of Thompsons is proudly maintaining the "Growing Tradition". A,graimtrading division has been established at Thompson's'head Office inBIembeim giving the company the advantage of marketing its own grain. Today. agtoup-of-traders work full time at the company supplying grain and oilseeds to both domestic and export markets. Thompson's traders are aggressive and have a keen understanding of world markets. An important factor to marketing success is integrity. When a company can claim close to 70 years of honourable, straight forward business ven- tures, its traders are free to work with the knowledge that any deal is backed by a solid reputation. The Hyland Seeds Divison of W.G. Thompson and Sons Limited strives to keep in the forefront of research, including biotechnology. With a staff of highly qualified researchers and plant breeders, Hyland is active in all areas of new variety development for corn, soybeans, edible beans and ce- real grains. Hyland also contributes to progressive development such as hulless oats and the expanding North American canola industry. The Hyland sales department, which has grown from a force of two to a strong alliance of over 500 dealers, covers all of Canada and parts of the northern United States. Hyland seed dealers have the proud distinction of being the leader in cereals and soybean sales in Central Canada. Thompsons pioneered the "Weed and,Feed" technique of simultaneous ; application of liquid nitrogen and herbicide by notation equipment and have the larges fleet in Ontario. Service. to the farmer when he needs it is vital to his success. Without this ability and dedication, Thompsons couldaot..have aehieyo its.eur7en(;.0 prominent,position in Canadian pgii ulture."T iniiPsons is idiitebusiness of building trust. Because in the final analysis, agriculture is people doing business with people, on a long term basis. Hensall branch manager Dale Good said he is predicting a better year for farmers in 1993 providing the weatherman is in a more agreeable mood than he was in 1992. Good expects an increase in white bean and soybean acreage with a small decrease in the number of acres planted in corn.
