COURTLAND, Minn. -- Pivot Bio, one of the world's most innovative agtech companies, has named Greg Peton as regional sales leader for its coastal region. In this role, Peton will lead sales efforts across a broad territory stretching from Texas through the Carolinas and into the Northeast, including New York, Pennsylvania and the Delmarva region, supporting farmers and retail partners with Pivot Bio's award-winning, patented crop nutrition technologies. These include the company's third-generation nitrogen product for corn, PROVEN G3, and its new cotton solution, CERT-N. These tools have been adopted across more than 15 million acres over the past several seasons, reflecting strong farmer demand and field performance.
"Greg knows what it takes to help farmers succeed, and he understands the realities of crop nutrition from the ground up," said Chris Turner, chief commercial officer at Pivot Bio. "He's a strong leader with deep roots in agriculture, and we're lucky to have him leading the charge in a critical part of the country."
Peton brings decades of experience in agricultural sales and leadership, with a background that spans seed, crop protection and agronomy services. He joined Pivot Bio in 2020 and most recently served as a national account manager, during which time he built trusted relationships with some of the largest growers in the U.S.
"Greg brings a steady hand and real operational strength to the field," said Daryl Allen, vice president of sales at Pivot Bio. "He understands how to navigate complex operations, align teams, and deliver value for both farmers and our retail partners."
Prior to Pivot Bio, Peton held senior roles at DuPont Pioneer, Rizobacter and United Farmers Cooperative, where he served as chief sales and marketing officer. He grew up on a diversified grain, dairy and livestock farm in northwest Iowa.
