Wollersheim Winery & Distillery is the winner of the Farmers Award, presented by New AG International at the 2024 Biostimulants World Congress in Miami today.

President and Winemaker Philippe Coquard accepted the award in a video feed. He said he was excited and honoured to receive the award. “This award is really a result of many years of sustainable approach to agriculture,” he added.

Wollersheim Winery & Distillery sits on a scenic hillside overlooking the Wisconsin River, just across from Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin (U.S.). The property was first cultivated by European vintners over 150 years ago, and was established as Wollersheim Winery in 1972. Today, this National Historic Site is home to one of the leading wineries in the Midwest, as well as a distillery.

Sponsored by Syngenta Biologicals, the Farmers Award is an award recognizing and rewarding the conscious use of plant biostimulants in farming practices addressing various aspects and benefits of the use of plant biostimulants.

The winner of the Farmers Award receives an award trophy, a free pass to any New AG International event in 2025, an interview featured in an issue of New AG International magazine, and a consulting session with one of Syngenta Biologicals’ ag experts and trusted advisors.
