Syngenta has picked Jeff Cecil as president and regional director of North America.
He was a farmer in west Kentucky before beginning his career with Syngenta.
Hee takes over from Vern Hawkins who is retiring after 40 years with Syngenta.
Cecil said “I think the farm economy is troubling. It’s definitely a challenged market space. The geopolitical situation is volatile, and I think that we need to be as stable as we can be through that.”
