Strutz Farm Inc.

Working on the farm with all his adult children is something Russel Strutz never thought would happen. Now, this fifth-generation dairyman considers himself lucky to spend each day alongside every member of the sixth generation at Strutz Farm Inc.

“I never dreamed it,” Strutz said. “I’m like a baseball player batting four for four. We never thought that would happen. I definitely enjoy working with the kids.”

Our fall harvests, manure and tillage wrapped up by Black Friday this year.

Our crews stayed busy harvesting nearly 800 acres of silage, 600 acres of dry corn, and 170 acres of soybeans, pumping 11.5 million gallons of manure, and a whole lot of acres of ground to plow.

There were many long days, but we couldn't get it done without the help of some of our crews:
1. Strutz Farm Inc. employees and seasonal help
2. Mike Kaufmann Custom Services LLC for chopping and trucking
3. Wavrunek Farms for combining
4. Countryside Construction (and others subcontracted) for trucking
5. Tisch Mills Farm Center
6. Country Visions Coop & the very best fuel guy around -- Weasel
7. Everyone else who deserves a THANK YOU! Especially Karen Strutz for ALWAYS keeping our bellies full!
