Please join us on Friday, July 27 for an Ag PhD Field Day on our farm near Baltic, SD. The event will run continuously from 8 am to 7 pm. Here are some of the things we’ll be doing that day:
- We’ll have many large plot displays featuring the latest seed and ag chemical technologies in corn, soybeans, wheat, and a handful of other crops. Some of these new technologies are not labeled yet, and you may only be able to see them on our farm. Brian and Darren will be going through these plots to give you their take.
- Live tiling demonstration with several tile plows
- Live lift station demonstration with a lift station tank and pump connected to tile lines
- A large Ride & Drive area complete with tractors and tillage equipment
- New technology displays and demonstrations from companies like Raven, FarmLogic, Outback, TJ Technologies, and many more
- There will also be optional educational sessions including a Tile Design Class with Brian Hefty, Drainage Law featuring one of the top ag drainage lawyers in the region, Estate Planning with a financial expert, Soil Mapping with a software technology company, and Tile Guidance System Updates with Intellislope, AGPS, and Trimble.
- As always, we’ll have entertainment for your kids including inflatables, balloons, games, and even a little farm safety information for kids.
- Lunch, supper, snacks, and drinks will also be served throughout the day.
There will be discount lodging available at several hotels. Just CLICK HERE for options or give us a call for more details at 605.529.5413.
