## Resource

Welcome back to Barn Talk! In this episode, Tork and Sawyer dive deep into the world of manure and yes, there’s a whole lot more to it than you might think. Joined by guests John and Mark from Stutsman’s, a leading AG retailer in southeast Iowa, the crew explores the evolution of manure handling, from the early days of hauling with simple vacuum tanks to today’s high-tech dragline systems moving thousands of gallons every minute. You'll hear how innovation, customer service, and company culture have driven Stutsman's growth, and get a firsthand look at how manure management is changing farm practices—and the value of manure as “liquid gold” for today’s farmers. Whether you’re a farm kid with your own tales from the barn, or just curious about agriculture’s dirty little secrets, this episode is packed with practical wisdom and some good laughs. Plus, get the latest ag market updates and find out how technology and teamwork keep Midwest farms running strong. So grab a cup of coffee (or maybe a free pop from the Stutzman’s store), and settle in for an episode that’s as informative as it is entertaining. Let’s get started!
