Our farm is currently experiencing the wettest spring and summer in over 132 years! As a result, we're replanting parts of our fields that have drowned out for the THIRD TIME this season. With July in full swing, the soybeans we're planting now will likely serve more as a cover crop than a harvestable one.

In today's video, discover why we chose to replant instead of leaving the soil barren and learn about the impacts of the flooding on our farm's future.

Matthias, aka HiTech Farmer, is a 5th generation family farmer from Southwest Minnesota who promotes agriculture by capturing it through the lens of a camera, one video at a time. Passionate about emerging farm technologies and the benefits of 21stcentury precision agriculture tools, such as farm equipment, GPS, and autonomous tractors, Matthias is determined to bring new methods into his operation. These methods can improve his farm's efficiency and sustainability into the future. Learning from his parents' (Mike and Dawn) work ethic, Matthias sees every day as an opportunity to educate and entertain about the daily triumphs and challenges his farm faces, whether technologyrelated or not. His mission is to share his enthusiasm and knowledge of agriculture as he embarks on what it means to be a farmer in the modern era.
