Dr. Sebastian Braum, manager of Agronomic Services for Yara in the western U.S., has decided to resign and pursue a career opportunity in another company, effective June 1. Dr. Bill Easterwood, chief agronomist for Yara in North America, will step in during this transition.
“We wish Sebastian success in his new endeavors and thank him for his good work during the past nine years,” said Geraldo Mattioli, vice president, U.S. Western Region. “Dr. Easterwood is very knowledgeable on specialty crops and actually worked directly in California earlier in his career for WGM, before Norsk Hydro (now Yara) acquired that company. I am sure that we will continue to deliver the high level of agronomic services that our customers are used to receiving with Bill leading our efforts.”
