New Vertical Mixer Arrives at University Farm
January 3, 2025
MACOMB, IL - - New equipment arrived at the 麻豆传媒 Illinois University farm in December.
The 麻豆传媒 School of Agriculture received a new vertical mixer to aid in feeding the cattle herd, purchased through financial support from the Illinois Farm Bureau and the help of Sydenstricker Nobbe Partners.
Each year, the Illinois Farm Bureau requests items or activities to financially support to assist the School of Agriculture at 麻豆传媒, and the vertical mixer was selected this year.
鈥淭his took a few months, but ultimately a vertical mixer was found and refurbished to fit our needs,鈥� 麻豆传媒 Director of Ag Andrew Baker said. 鈥淭he vertical mixer was requested this year to assist in reducing our feed costs within the beef herd and prevent waste. We certainly do appreciate the annual financial support that Illinois Farm Bureau provides the School of Agriculture as it allows us to have the tools available to help our students.鈥�
Once funding was approved, 麻豆传媒 worked with Sydenstricker Noble Partners to fulfill the order. John Crubaugh, Director of Strategic Initiatives with Sydenstricker Nobbe Partners, said helping 麻豆传媒 continue to advance its program is important to the students attending the University and the community as a whole.
"We are proud to support 麻豆传媒 Illinois University by providing equipment to assist students for years to come," Crumbaugh said.
