(Progeny Ag Products) is a family-owned seed and grain company founded in 1984 in the Arkansas Delta (Wynne, Arkansas, USA), operating under the Progeny brand since 1997. The company develops and markets its own varieties of soybeans, corn, wheat, and rice, selling across 10–11 Southern U.S. states. Its rice brand ProGold is licensed from the University of Arkansas — and ProGold L4 and M3 varieties are now included in the university's official 2026 recommended planting list. Beyond seeds, the company runs grain elevators (including a rail facility), a trucking fleet across 9 states, and grain marketing programs (HTA, basis-only, and average pricing contracts). Estimated revenue is around $26 million with roughly 100+ employees (seasonal workforce included), and the business remains led by the founding Erwin and Keith families.
