Where You Are Coming From
I am constantly asked who visits AgWired and I wish I could provide some sort of answer that includes all your names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. However, that would violate privacy (if I even had it). Besides this website is all about you deciding to visit and not have to register and log in. That’s just so annoying isn’t it? …

Farm Fueled Ag Hall of Fame Luncheon
When I first saw a picture of Tom Slunecka, Ethanol Promotion & Information Council in the invitation for the 2007 Annual Meeting of the National Agricultural Center & Hall of Fame I thought he was being inducted. A little young isn’t he, I thought. Then I looked closer and saw that he’s the guest speaker at the luncheon on Thursday …
Inventors Challenged by Farm Progress Show
I’ve got my media registration submitted and a hotel room somewhat near the 2007 Farm Progress Show in Decatur, IL. It doesn’t hurt to plan ahead. If you’re an inventor and want a shot at some significant publicity then you might want to consider entering the Farm Progress Show Inventors Challenge. Farmers have a chance to enter their original inventions …
