    F4F w/ Brandon Hunnicutt - Deeply Rooted in Technology Nov 02, 2023
    Show notes

    Brandon Hunnicutt works with his father and brother on land that has been in his family for nearly 120 years. As a 5th generation Nebraska farmer, his days are packed with farm responsibilities, yet he finds time to serve on the National Corn Growers Association and Nebraska Checkoff boards, act as chair of Field to Market, and chase around his seven kids. He’s also learning as much as he can about carbon and sustainability. ​“And when I’m really bored, I start learning about blockchain, because why not?” he laughs.

    Today, Brandon’s farm grows corn, popcorn, soybeans, and seed corn. Giltner, Nebraska, where Hunnicutt Farms is located, is a good area for corn. In fact, Nebraska is the Cornhusker State for a reason — the state ranks third in the nation for corn production overall, and first in popcorn.

    Although the farm has been operating for over a century, the challenges Brandon and his family face today are very different from past decades. Not too long ago, cross-pollination and herbicide drift weren’t understood as serious issues, and many growers didn’t think about an insecticides’ ability to kill everything in a field — harmful or not — from an environmental perspective. Today, concerns about the environment and climate change play a much larger role in farm operations and Brandon has seen the focus shift to the broader environmental impact of these practices.“ These are nuances that growers weren’t thinking about even 25 years ago,” he says.

    Jason Cope - Understanding that perseverance is a very important factor. Stay focused on things you know you can achieve and accomplish.You can ‘minimize the background noise’ and continue to focus on that goal. Do it in a way that’s good for yourself, but also good for others.The growth you’ll experience through that type of perseverance, is life changing.

    Royce Johns - Don’t trust everything they say.Consider what they say and listen, but make your own decisions.

    Tony Latcham – Don’t stress/worry so much. Enjoy that time. Life’s too short. It passes by in a blink of an eye.

    Joy VanWyngarden – Pick friends that are “where” you want to go.Hang out with like-minded people.

    Jackie Wilson Flying Diamond Beef - Life will have challenges – keep a positive attitude, think about the big picture and do things for others.

    Jacquelyn Leffler - No matter how you grew up in life, no one can take away your education. But I would now change the word “education” to “experience”. If you can figure out that the sky’s the limit, you’re gonna go far.There’s no limit to success. If you have that mentality, success is yours already.

    Viren Dsouza - Keep taking chances. Don’t worry about others’ perception of you. Do your own thing and go for it.

    Nick Tsiolis, Farmer’s Keeper - Be a sponge!Absorb and learn and ask as many questions as you can. You have energy, time, less commitments and can really throw yourself into learning your craft. Totally immerse yourself in the learning. WHO do I want to be, not WHAT do I want to be. Look at people further along in life, and more successful and have more experiences than yourself.

    Tom Stanton Red Star– Don’t be afraid to move. Don’t be afraid to try something new.

    Elaine Froese - Be aware of what your strengths are. Know what you’re good at and what you should be valued at. Have family meetings because you can’t assume everyone wants and feels the same as you.

    Corey – Buy Land, however you can.

    Dave – Why are you in such a hurry to grow up?Travel NOW (when you’re young).(Huey & Annie also)

    Tanner – Go do “it”.You’ll never be fully ready, just go do it.
