Dillon Smith is a land real estate agent out of Crescent, Oklahoma. We talked with Dillon about selling land 1 year ago. At the time, Dillon was a brand new agent. 1 year ago, we were laughing about how Dillon had acquired his first sales through other agents in the company and was scrapping his way to learn the ropes. In a short time, Dillon has cracked well inside our top 100 agents and is currently listing just shy of 20 Oklahoma properties. This is a chance to touch base and discuss his journey, discuss winter crop preparation, tell some hunting lies, and even talk about my fear of tornadoes and poisonous snakes.

Conservation is a word that can have heavy political undertones and in some parts of the United States, it is a four-letter word. Often, conservation is pitted against landowners and agriculture as an either/or situation, and it shouldn’t be. Today, we are talking to Lesli Allison, CEO of the Western Landowners Alliance, an organization determined to change the relationship between landowners and conservation. This organization works with landowners, not against them to achieve terrific results in conservation.
