ONE ACRE AT A TIME

摘要

ADVANCED SOFTWARE SERVES AS THE CORNERSTONE IN THIS ILLINOIS FAMILY'S SITE-SPECIFIC PROGRAM.Hunt Farm, based in Blandinsville, Illinois, insists it farms "one acre at a time." That is, indeed, the case, due in part to Ag Leader SMS Advanced software and two Ag Leader Insight displays. Founded in 1940, Hunt Farm, which manages nearly equal acresof corn and soybeans with a little wheat thrown in on lighter soil, is currently into its fifth generation of management. While patriarch Ed Hunt is still involved most days, sons Brad and Dave; grandsons Jake, Kevin, and Colby; grandnephew Monte Mason;and Monte's son, Glade, handle most of today's activities.According to Monte, the family's official goal is to "give detailed attention to every acre and every landowner by using georeferenced, site-specific practices and by being good stewards of the resources available to be productive and profitable."
