Latham Hi-Tech Seeds is a farming seed company based in Alexander, Iowa, with its roots in a family business founded in 1947 by Willard and Evelyn Latham. It began by supporting oat crops and later expanded into soybean production, with subsequent generations adding hybrid corn and hi-tech forage to the lineup. Today, the company focuses on supplying soybean seed, hybrid seed corn, alfalfa seed, and cover crop seed to farmers. The former family residence now serves as the company’s headquarters, underscoring its long-running family heritage. In 2024, Latham Seeds reportedly sold assets to MS Technologies LLC, with the retail seed brand transferred to MS Technologies amid financial losses. In 2026, the company filed suit against Bayer AG and affiliates over competition in the US corn seed market, and it named Amy Rohe as General Manager in May 2026 as part of leadership changes.
