Our grain operation takes place at both locations. We specialize in both yellow and white food grade corn. We sell this through a few local elevators and the Frito-Lay company, which have your name brands like Fritos, and Tostitos which our corn goes to make. We have raised corn for Frito-Lay for 13 years. We pride ourselves in raising quality corn that can feed our nation.
Along with the corn, we also raise soybeans. As of this year we are raising seed beans for the Monsanto company. We raise soybeans in rotation with corn to be environmentally friendly. Being environmentally friendly is important to the future of agriculture and we make every step possible to protect our earth.
Raising crops is not our only specialty, when we are not farming we also raise livestock. We currently raise both cattle and sheep. In the past we also have raised pigs. We have a small herd of select registered Angus Cattle that we raise for breeding stock and show animals.
Other than the cattle, we also raise Columbia, Polypay, and Tunis Sheep. We originally started with Polypay sheep for production then we added the Columbias for show, and finally the Tunis sheep for their meat characteristics. The sheep are raised for quality breeding stock, commercial rams, and fat lambs.
