On my way out of the National Farm Machinery Show I paid a visit on my friend and former farm broadcaster, Price Allen. Price works for Monty’s Plant Food Company which is practically across the highway from the show. He introduced me to the company president, Dennis Stephens (pictured).
Dennis shares the unique story about Monty’s Plant Food since it is the outgrowth of an effort by the company founder to make a better rose bloom! Now they sell their products in 13 countries and are really focusing growth on the agricultural market. Dennis explains all this and why their plant food product is so much superior in helping create a healthy plant which is their number one goal.

Dwayne is a farmer and an internet entrepreneur who is doing well with websites like
I’ve got a lot more to post from the National Farm Machinery Show but it will have to wait until tomorrow. I traveled home today and just like when I left, it was snowing by the time I got back to mid Missouri.
It wouldn’t be a John Deere exhibit without tractors and here at the National Farm Machinery Show they’ve got tractors on display. To learn more about the new tractors offered by John Deere I interviewed John Panning, product specialist.
John Deere has some big machinery on display here and one of the biggest is a
You just don’t know who you’re going to run into here at a show like the National Farm Machinery Show. This afternoon I saw my good friend, Jack Crowner,
