Imagine walking up to the parts counter and getting the part you need without saying a word. What about up-to-the minute weather, market, pest and issue updates. Would you believe you can get it with a smartphone, Facebook and Twitter account?

Tools that teenagers use every day are also tools that farmers can use to stay up-to-date on issues that affect their bottom-line. Find out how these new technologies can help your farm and business in this webinar.
