It's time for another What's Working in Ag segment, and I can't believe the guys left me to do it alone. I think it's the first time they've actually let me do it, so we could just go rogue and talk about whatever we want.
Pat 2:27
It's a lot of trust, Corey. Yeah, whatever we want. I'm glad they left us unsupervised.
Corey Hillebo 2:30
Yeah. Yeah, we could just have a good time here. So here with our friends at AgExplore, and we are going to be talking a – Do we call this a seed treatment? Yeah, it's a planter box seed treatment. Planter box seed treatment. Biological planter box seed treatment. Yeah, and I have used a previous version of this called GrowPak AI, and it worked fantastic for me last year. But before we get into that, we are unlocking a new character to AgExplore here. I believe this is Gunny's childhood best friend. You could call it childhood.
Gunther 3:04
I met him in my professional career, but I might have still been a child at the time.
Corey Hillebo 3:07
Oh, we're all still kids at heart, right? Okay, so Pat, when did you and Gunny meet, and why are you guys such good friends?
Pat 3:16
20-some years ago, Gunther was fresh out of college and was a salesman at a local retail establishment. I think four months being there, the plant manager quit in the middle of planting season.
Unknown 3:29
Okay.
Pat 3:30
And Gunther got to be the plant manager. And, yeah, that started out an interesting long-term. We just kind of started working together a lot more after that. Yeah. It's been a very fun, entertaining road with Gunther as far as the directions he's gone. And I've pretty much stayed at the farm and did my thing. So you farm. What do you farm? So we farm halfway between Indianapolis, Chicago, outside of Purdue University. We mainly have a lot of corn, some beans, a little bit of wheat. We used to have livestock, but they're gone. We're concentrating heavily on... You know, putting a lot of emphasis in growing our row crops.
