The Fendt & Luke Bryan Boldly Grown Popcorn has been created in collaboration between the AGCO Corporation-owned brand and the counter music singer as a socially responsible snack option. The snack comes in two flavors including Chart Toppin' Churro and Bold Butter, which are both crafted with premium ingredients and come in bags priced at $5 each. Fendt will donate $25,000 after the limited supply of snacks runs out to the National FFA Organization to support youths on their journey towards leadership and careers in business, science and technology of agriculture.
AGCO Chairman, President and CEO Eric Hansotia commented on the Fendt & Luke Bryan Boldly Grown Popcorn saying, "AGCO’s relationship with Luke Bryan and his Farm Tour really highlights the passion we share for putting farmers first. AGCO is a strong supporter of FFA’s educational mission, and many of our employees – including myself – grew up in the organization. This is a fun opportunity for AGCO, Luke, and his fans to help FFA prepare tomorrow’s farming leaders."
