HISTORY OF IOWA CORN & THE SPEEDWAY (WHY NASCAR)
25,000+ seats sold out for the race and 1000 farmers and their families present to watch their product in action on the fastest short-track in the nation surrounded by corn fields.
A large, national audience excited about the power and performance of ethanol with 4.1 million unique viewers.
Driving online traffic and increasing brand exposure with 7.6 million digital page views.
If you divide Iowa’s 2023 corn crop by the race’s 350 laps, each time around the track would equate to 7 million bushels. Corn is a major economic engine for the state.
What makes farmers or farming so great? – Summary Show
Pure Enjoyment:
12/21/23 – Thur – F4F – E251 (E344) “Just a Jackson Thing” plus cousins Brad and Becca (Jackson)
Watching tractors rolling in the field with smoke, filling up with seeds all the way through corn and bean harvest.
Blowing smoke, gettin’ er done. Let ’er eat!
11/16/23 – Thur – F4F – E246 (E334) One Legged Mommy – Josie Wendel
Love of the game! It doesn’t matter to a farmer if they’re winning or losing in a year, they’ll go right back out to plant again next spring. It’s in their blood…the Love of the ‘farming’ game!
How do you think we can draw upon the enjoyment we all have in farming to entice or educate those that are outside of agriculture?
Top Tier People:
11/23/23 – Thur – F4F – E247 (E336) John Kowalshuk, Alberta, Canada
It’s the people. There are so many awesome people to talk with and learn from. I’m proud to be a farmer.
We are quality people.
9/28/23 – Thur – F4F – E240 (E320) Tim Marks -Tractor Time with Tim – Super charged compact tractors FPS23
The quality of the people in the ag industry is incredible.
What is it that makes the people of agriculture such stand up people? Where did this originate?
Quality of Life – Pride in Life Style:
10/23/23 – Mon – F4P – E149 (E327) Digital Agriculture: Sowing the Seeds of Online Income – FPS23
Natalie – It’s the lifestyle it provides. Farming/ranching is so integrated into our lifestyle. The pros outweigh the cons, for sure. The best people are in the farming industry.
9/21/23 – Thur – F4F – E240 (E318) The Modern Day Farm Chick – Annaliese Wegner FPS23
It’s the Lifestyle. It’s more than just a job. I get to work with family, be outside and have the kids grow up on the farm.
Does this type of lifestyle make it better than other types? What are the benefits of the lifestyle? Detriments?
Connection to Family:
10/12/23 – Thur – F4F – E241 (E324) Tony Reed & Nick McCormick – Illinois icons
Tony – It’s one big family. You can relate in so many areas/topics. It’s easy to talk to each other.
10/9/23 – Mon – F4P – E147 (E323) Zach Johnson, Millennial Farmer FPS23 Reflection/summary show
What do you enjoy most about farming or working with farmers?I love raising my kids on the farm.It’s the most rewarding of anything I do. Having them watch the cycle of life through crops and livestock and working hard.
Do you think the connection to family is still as strong today as it was a generation or two ago?
Always driving forward:
9/11/23 – Mon – F4P – E143 (E315) Thinking ahead: The Key to Farm Success – Sukup, 3rd generation Emily Schmitt FPS23
They are natural innovators and problem solvers. Farmers are the epitome of an innovator. They figure out how to make things work. When you meet them and get to know them, you have a natural common bond in farming. It’s easy to get to know them.
11/2/23 – Thur – F4F – E244 (E330) Deeply Rooted in Technology - Brandon Hunnicutt Husker Harvest Days
They have the same goals in mind, but everyone does it differently. You can see they do something differently. But different doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Learn from it. There is always something to learn.
Is it innovation by necessity or innovation by nature? Can or does this show up in other types of professions?

How do “Large Scale” Solar and Wind projects get started?
1. What defines a utility-scale renewable energy project and how it works (quick definition of wind/solar projects and how they work)
2. What it’s like for a farmer to lease land to a renewable energy project (speaking with developers, signing a lease, etc)
3. How renewable energy projects can (and should) coexist with agriculture: (i.e. how wind turbines take very little space from farming land so farmers can continue to work the land. Not the same for solar projects, but farmers can grow crops next to solar sites, herd sheep within solar sites, and how the land will be fertile for agriculture once the solar site is decommissioned).
4. Pros and cons of leasing land to a renewable energy project
✅Pros of leasing land to a renewable energy project:
❎Cons of leasing land to a renewable energy project:
5. How generating solar/wind energy is a form of harvesting in itself
6. Things to consider if you’re a farmer considering leasing land to a renewable energy project.
7. Opportunity to answer commonly asked questions/misconceptions of renewable energy projects:
8. Advice to farm landowners considering leasing land to a solar or wind project.
*It goes without saying but it’s important for landowners considering leasing land to a clean energy project to consult with relevant legal and financial experts for their unique situation before finalizing any agreements. There are resources like the Center for Rural Opportunity and Power (CROP) that provide good, unbiased information on how to get access to these resources as a landowner. CROP’s mission is to educate audiences about the benefits of energy independence.You can visit their website cropamerica.com or drop them an email [email protected] for more info.
