From ‘Prince of Darkness’ to Farm Hand
In 2018, the late Ozzy Osbourne paid a memorable visit to Shatto Milk Company, getting a firsthand look at what dairy farm life was really like. It was a special experience that struck a chord with everyone at the dairy and remains a cherished memory they won’t soon forget. Check out more in this article from Dairy Herd Management.
Flashback: The First “QUALITY” Gravity Bed Purchase
Check out this Facebook post from Unverferth on the fist Parker box that was sold for $140 to Kenneth Coble on Oct. 3, 1960.
Your Secret’s Safe with Northstar Hardware & Implement
This is a Coldplay kiss-cam gate meme we can get behind!
Used Equipment Inventory Red Flags
Check out this video from Tractor Zoom. The supply of 4WD tractors has surged by 31% year over year, raising red flags on dealer lots. Auction values are softening, yet dealer list prices remain steady, indicating rising inventory pressure. With fewer incentives to trade and flat commodity prices, the high-horsepower segment might stay sluggish.
A Workplace Culture Reminder — Thank You Goes a Long Way
Thanks to Brady Batman from CodifyWorks for this reminder. Last week, I started a conversation about culture—specifically within agriculture organizations and equipment dealerships. The response was energizing. But it was a conversation in my personal life that truly shaped where I want to go next.
