What happens when you put bold ag tech in front of a panel of no-nonsense farmers and hand them the mic?
In the premiere episode of “What Farmers Want”—brought to you by Cornerstone Credit Union’s Rural Tech Act—host Dan Aberhart invites you to witness a high-stakes, Shark Tank-style pitch where Kyle Folk, Founder & CEO of GroundTruth Ag, makes his case for a new approach to on-farm grain grading automation.

Matt Wallington – Hanover Ridge Farms
Brett Casavant – Cas-Grain Farms

They ask the tough questions, challenge assumptions, and weigh in on whether this technology has what it takes to make it out of the shop and onto the farm.
💡 Highlights Include:
Why ag tech adoption so often misses the mark
The real-world challenges of grain grading and quality assessment
What it takes to earn the trust of producers
