Cowboy Boots, Crop Yields, and Trucks

I am proud to have been raised in a farm family, and one thing that I have learned about farm men is there are three things they take great pride in, their cowboy boots, crop yields, and their truck. Today Monsanto’s Better Beans for Better Business campaign presented one farmer with the opportunity to take even greater pride in his truck. They gave away a brand new Chevy Duramax truck, and this wasn’t your typical truck. This truck was one of great beauty and expense. It came fully loaded with a blackberry to check the latest commodity markets, a laptop computer, and a truck bed full of seed. The lucky winner was Paul Brown of Iowa.
