Since the beginning of civilization, agricultural practices have played a huge part in the way the world moves forward. Fast forward to the present day and it still does, but today’s growers are equipped technology and capabilities that were unthinkable even a few decades ago. There’s a world of data behind every farm, just waiting to be harvested. Tools like John Deere Operations Center™, can help cultivate that data and bring insights like fuel utilization and production hours to life, illustrating opportunities and improvements across an operation. In this article, Maria Zepeda Gomez, an agronomist at RDO, shares ways to optimize your field from one year to the next with connected machines.

Trent Bess founded TKB Excavation nearly 20 years ago. Since then, he's thrived in a booming market, growing his business and growing the size and diversity of his equipment fleet right along with it. His original excavation jobs left him with lots of extra rock that needed crushing. That led him to purchase his Kleeman jaw crusher. The aggregate business was good; so good that Trent has since added a cone crusher and mobile screening plant to his Kleeman collection. Luckily for RDO, new equipment meant a new partnership, one our team values heavily. Read more about TKB Excavation and how they crush their workload and keep rocking right along while relying on RDO as their trusted partner.
