Christianson’s Dustin Kotrba is an active member of the Willmar Economic Development Commission’s Ag and Renewable Energy Development Committee. Last year, this group conducted a survey to establish the primary pain points of farmers and agricultural producers in our area. The results of this survey have outlined this year’s Talent and Technology Workshop which will take place one week from today (August 13th).
The goal of this workshop is to help our progressive farm managers grow smarter and stronger. It features two dynamic sessions on talent and technology.
