This morning a fire started in our cob building at our headquarters that began in a cob crusher. Thank you to the 14 different area fire departments & first responders who contained the fire & kept all of our employees safe. Praise God for his protection.
One of the great things about

Did you know that the average farmer feeds almost 160 people? And yet, farmers and ranchers make up less than 2% of the population! Thanks to all the men and women who work hard each and every day. 😊

Just how important is Nitrogen in corn production? Even early in the season, we’re seeing dramatic differences in the no nitrogen at planting vs. the 30 units 2x2. 🌽
#BecksPFR
Does singulating soybeans actually make a difference? We hope to find out this year with our study at
#BecksPFR
in
#IN
! We're switching out our 80 cell dual hole soybean plates with a single cell, 56 hole plate and planting a little slower to singulate! Stay tuned for results! 👌🏼

What a beautiful day to host over 550 FFA students and advisors as they stop by to tour our facility while traveling to Indianapolis for the 2021 National FFA Convention! Welcome to Beck’s! 🤩🌽
After doing some root digs in our Closing Wheel Studies at the
#KYPFR
site we noticed that, where we ran Precision Planting’s FurrowForce, we have more root growth. Will this translate to more yield this fall? Can't wait to find out!

We're excited to showcase our industry-leading line of corn products to farmers through our 2020 Choice Trials. Don’t miss the opportunity to take a peak behind the genetic germplasm curtain that the rest of the industry wants to keep closed.
#ChoiceTrials2020
This planting season has been a challenge for many, but the good news is that history gives farmers hope that there is still opportunity in delayed planting. Watch this video from Scott Beck, President of Beck's now!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
Our
#INPFR
team got creative when they had to spray their Induced Stress Study but the field was to wet to get equipment in. With a short window before more rain, they decided to take a product tank off of a planter and hooked it up to a lawn mower battery to save the study! 👏🏼
2” planting depth on the left vs. 1.25” planting depth on the right. The
#IAPFR
Soybean Singulation Study is providing unintended data. With the dry spring we have had, the different planting depths prove the importance of planting into moisture.

How important is even emergence? Look at the difference in these ears between what emerged on the first day compared to what came up on day 4!

After all of our testing, the
