Get zero-percent extended terms with Golden Advantage from Golden Harvest

Giving farmers the edge they need next season

Make your dollars go further by taking advantage of Golden Advantage. Use our zero-interest extended terms offer to purchase Golden Harvest seed and qualified Syngenta Seedcare products.

MALTA, Ill. — Even with recent drops in interest rates providing some relief from the extreme highs in 2023 and 2024, farmers faced with challenging financial pressures are looking for an advantage as they head into the next production season.

That’s why Golden Harvest is proud to offer farmers zero-interest extended terms on Golden Harvest corn and soybean seed and qualified Syngenta Seedcare products through Golden Advantage.

“Golden Harvest is committed to putting farmers first, whether it’s by providing top-performing corn hybrids and soybean varieties or our trusted team of Seed Advisors working with farmers on solutions for their agronomics needs,” said Heather Volpe, Golden Harvest marketing manager.

“Golden Advantage reinforces that commitment to farmers, providing a financial edge as they begin planning for the new season.”

Golden Advantage is an extended terms offer funded through Syngenta Seeds LLC and is different from financing.

It does not impact other lines of credit, and it is not reported as a loan on credit reports. Farmers have the flexibility to pay on their schedule with no penalty for paying off early.

Applications for use in the 2025 planting season must be submitted by May 2. Payment for Golden Harvest seed and Syngenta Seedcare products purchased for the 2024-2025 season is due in full on or before Dec. 5.

Both seed and qualified seed treatment can be applied to a Golden Advantage account. Seed treatment applied by a local Seed Advisor downstream can also be applied to a Golden Advantage account.

Volpe said keeping enrollment simple was a goal for the extended terms offer, adding that farmers will find it “as easy as 1-2-3.”

First, farmers talk to their authorized Golden Harvest Seed Advisor or GHX Certified Advisor and complete their application. Next, they order Golden Harvest seed for 2025 planting.

Then, they can complete payment easily by logging into their Golden Advantage account and paying online. Their Golden Harvest One-Stop Account Access lets them monitor their spending limit and pay their extended terms.
