While the overall agriculture industry is facing challenging commodity prices, Ag Systems continues to invest in infrastructure and offerings to support ag retailers. This segment continues to benefit from trends that favor custom application and data services. Weed resistance continues to increase, causing more complexity in spraying and crop management. In addition, farming complexity is increasing as well, and retailers are uniquely position to help farmers navigate technology and data tools to maximize effectiveness. The addition of the new facility, as well as the addition of a Yield360 distributorship, helps Ag Systems customers take advantage of these trends.
