Doing More with Less
Backed by data and field studies, Magnation has
proven to improve soil penetration, balance soil pH,
reduce SAR’s (Salt absorption ratios) up to 50%,
reduce salt build-up in soils and scale issues (calcium,
lime, iron scale and corrosion build-up) in pipes and
equipment, improve plant vitality and disease
resistance reducing nematodes and pathogens,
iron bacteria, bicarbonate issues, and more.
Magnation’s chemical-free water systems make for
higher quality water, and mellower soils by reducing
friction and density in the water. Due to friction loss,
water flow is improved and energy consumption is
reduced by 10%. Due to improved solubility, less inputs
are needed and water resources are stretched.
Ask any farmer to describe the most effective water
for growing vibrant, healthy crops and they’ll likely
answer you in one word—rain. As a rain drop falls,
its molecules become smaller, more agitated and
consequently more available to soil, seeds and
plants. By emulating the physical forces that create
this level of exceptional water quality, Magnation
comes as close to natural rain water as possible.
When irrigation water passes through technologically
customized, engineered magnetic fields created
by the Magnation system, its molecular structure
is broken down into smaller, more bioavailable
clusters, allowing a greater amount of oxygen and
nutrients to infiltrate the soil. This softened, rainlike
water more easily penetrates soil, spreads across
a wider area of ground, helps soil retain moisture,
stimulates soil nutrients and enhances plant growth,
reducing irrigation requirements by 20%.

throughout the full revolution of the pivot or just in the corners, depending on site specifics and irrigator preferences. It can be used in
conjunction with a higher volume Big Gun® Sprinkler – or on its own. The R55 can always remain on, turn on via a solenoid on an 800
series valve or work under the logic of a linked control system with a SR100/800P Valve or SRNV100 (Nozzle Valve).

BANK OF IDAHO
Committed to Eastern Idaho’s Ag Community
The extensive role of agriculture in Idaho is not lost on us. Agriculture in the state generated nearly $10 billion in sales
in 2014. That’s big business.
And that’s why we have specialized officers, dedicated specifically to help farmers, ranchers and others in the ag industry
keep their operations stoked and running at full steam.
These specialists are familiar with the seasonal nature of the business, and are well-versed in the intricacies of
custom-tailoring lines of credit, equipment loans, term loans, revolving lines of credit for livestock, and the countless
complexities crop insurance programs introduce.
We combine this local customer focus with cutting-edge banking technology and resources that help us respond to
customer needs with flexible repayment terms, low rates and locally made decisions – all on a timetable that keeps up
with the blistering pace of today’s business environment.
And provisions to address the specific needs of ag clients are baked into the company’s
structure. “My management team gives me the support I need so I can take the time to
get my boots dirty and really get to know my clients,” said Blair Lyon, Vice President
of Agricultural and Commercial Lending. “The strong client-partnerships I’ve built
are largely due to the support and encouragement I receive from all levels within the
organization.”
As a bank conceived and rooted on the Snake River Plain, developing agriculture
has been a high priority since day one. We now have full-service branches in Idaho
Falls, Pocatello, St. Anthony, Ashton and Island Park, and we’re still proud to consider
ourselves a hometown bank, committed to friendly, exceptional, personal service.
From our vantage point, everything we do to help our customers succeed, directly
affects our own success.
BLAIR LYON
Vice President of Agricultural & Commercial Lending
On top of that, we’ve always strived to be a leader when it comes to giving back to the communities we serve. From
thousands of dollars in cash donations to civic and educational charities, to thousands of hours of employees’ time,
you’ll be hard-pressed to find any local business that puts more resources into improving life in eastern Idaho.
“The Bank of Idaho truly is committed to community,” said Marketing Director Jarod Phillips. “Beyond doing business,
we want to be good stewards of the communities we serve. We want people to know that our roots are here, we’re
homegrown, and we’re making an effort to positively impact the lives of the people around us.”

Valley Irrigation Technology Gives Growers More Control and Freedom
®
The days of driving to the field in the middle of the night to
check on center pivots are quickly becoming a thing of the
past. Gone are the days of missing vacations, children’s
ballgames and family time. And it’s all thanks to technology.
BaseStation3 native apps for iOS (iPhone, iPad) and Android,
Campbell said. With the app, growers can monitor, start and
stop pivots and end guns; write and edit programs for Pro2
control panels; and perform many other management tasks.
“We work hard to make sure our technology keeps making
farmers’ lives better and easier,” said Valley® Irrigation
Advanced Technology Product Manager John Campbell. Part
of the Valley philosophy is providing growers with the best
options for their farms and freeing up time for other things.
That means listening to what growers want and need.
“The app on this is awesome,” says Steve Berg, a
Kennewick, Wash., farmer with 36 pivots running on
BaseStation3. “It has everything on it that I like and use
regularly.”
Listening was key in the development of BaseStation3™,
which lets growers monitor and control their center pivots
from a computer, tablet or smartphone.
Growers said they wanted quick and easy access to
the control features they use most, so Valley developed
The cutting-edge technology of BaseStation3 also means
growers can choose an Internet-connected or stand-alone
installation, and select data radio, cellular modems, Internet
protocol or a combination of technologies – a choice no
one else offers. Another BaseStation3 exclusive: A typical
installation doesn’t require any recurring fees. Learn more
about BaseStation3 at www.valleyirrigation.com.

ANNOUNCING THE NEW, INTUITIVE BASESTATION3™.
It’s time to dole out the chores. With the new, intuitive BaseStation3™ from Valley , you can easily control and monitor your
irrigation equipment anytime, anywhere, from a computer, tablet or smartphone. Net result? Less time running around
fields, more time doing whatever you want.

1031 Tax Deferred Exchanges for Real Estate
Are you thinking of selling your property and purchasing new real estate and want to avoid paying the capital gains on
the sale of the first property? If so, an IRS 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange is for you. On certain types of property you may
defer the recognition of capital losses or capital gains due at time of sale, under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue
Code of the United States. This allows you to defer capital gains taxes that would be otherwise due. You do not have to
exchange with the owner of the property you want to purchase. You can sell to one buyer and buy from another owner.
Real property, and some other types of property that are held for the productive use in a trade or business or for investment generally qualify for 1031 tax deferred treatment. Property like stocks, bonds and other types do not qualify. Property is exchanged rather than bought and sold. Exchanged properties must be of “like kind”. In other words,
it must be in the same character and nature but are not required to be same quality. There are many options when exchanging Real Property. You can exchange a ranch for commercial building downtown or a rental home for a farm.
Properties being exchanged through a 1031 in the United States must be exchanged for other property in the United States. …Find the rest of this article in our current issue of The Range Writer...Email us for a digital or mailed copy.

AG WORLD SUPPORT SYSTEMS
Ag World Support Systems LLC will be celebrating 19 years in the potato and vegetable inspection service. Founded
in 1997, Ag World Support Systems LLC is a private, independent, third party Inspection Company serving the raw
product inspection needs of the North American processing industries. Currently, Ag World services the Othello and
Moses Lake, WA Simplot potato plants; the Quincy, Warden, Connell, Pasco, and Richland, WA ConAgra potato
plants; the Cavendish potato plant in Jamestown, ND; the Simplot potato plant in Grand Forks, ND; and the McCain
Foods potato plants in Easton, MA and Othello, WA. Ag World also provides a vegetable inspection service at the
Pasco Processing plant in Pasco, WA. In addition to the US facilities, Ag World Support Systems provides Canadian
potato inspection service for Simplot and McCain Foods in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, as well as McCain Foods in
Carberry, Manitoba. Ag World also provides inspection consulting service for the Con Agra plant in China.
With our ever expanding services Ag World continues to offer our customers a full QA program verifying our inspections
are performed according to the customer’s contractual agreement.
When asked why would a processor or grower want to use Ag World’s service? We answer by saying; we are an unbiased
independent third party inspection service with high integrity. Our entire business is providing a high quality, cost
effective service by generating both accurate and timely inspection information. We are flexible and responsive to our
customers needs and do not have a large bureaucracy
that inhibits our service. Where processors conduct
their own inspections, outsourcing to our private
service reduces the processor’s exposure. In these
circumstances, our services help enhance the process/
grower relationship by removing the potential for
perceived biases from processor generated inspection
data.
Warren Henninger, Founder/Chairman, is very
proud of all Ag World’s employees and stated, “ Ag
World’s success in representing the grower(seller)
and the processor (buyer) is dependent on our team’s
dedication to serving the needs of the customer with
integrity at its fullest and consistent high quality data.
Ag World is blessed with a team that works together
to achieve their fullest potential.”

Huma Gro® Liquid Plant Nutrition
and Crop Protection
Founded in 1973, Bio Huma Netics, Inc. (BHN)—the
producer of the HUMA GRO® line of plant nutrition
and protection products—uses its Micro Carbon
Technology® (MCT) to complex nutrients and other
ingredients with extremely small carbon- and oxygenrich molecules, creating a delivery vehicle that makes
our products much more effective and efficient than
any known plant nutrient sources on the market.
The HUMA GRO® family of products offers growers
a comprehensive line-up of complete crop programs
and has a sustainable solution for every crop
need: Sustainable Soil Fertility, Optimal Growth
Management, Ultra-Efficient Crop Nutrition (N-P-K
macronutrients, secondary macronutrients, and
micronutrients), Zero-Residue Crop Protection
(OMRI-Listed, EPA exempt), Carbon-Rich Organic
Acids, and Soil Surfactants. All HUMA GRO® liquid
nutrition products contain MCT.
MCT-based HUMA GRO® products have a positive
environmental impact, promote the growth of roots
and beneficial microorganisms in the soil, are safe
for foliar application to leaves without toxicity or
burn when applied per label instructions, and reduce
the amount of fertilizer applied and crop protection
products needed to accomplish maximum results.
The unique Micro Carbon Technology® allows
individual and mixed nutrients to be absorbed by the
plant more efficiently. The tiny molecule size makes
all the difference. It adds effectiveness to the fertilizer
and protects nutrients from soil “tie-up.” The smaller
carbon molecule size also creates a greater surface
area to more easily carry nutrients into the plant.
For potato growers at this time of the year, our
recommended focus is on building the soil structure
and microbial ecosystem in preparation for spring
planting. This is particularly important for soils that
were fumigated at the end of last season to remove
parasitic nematodes and other pests. Our premier
product for this purpose is SOIL-MAX™.
SOIL-MAX™ Improves Soil Structure
SOIL-MAX™ complexed with Micro Carbon
Technology® improves soil structure and stimulates the
activity of beneficial bacteria in the soil. This balances
the carbon-oxygen ratio, creating a carbon-rich soil
that allows the bulk soil and rhizosphere to be more
active. SOIL-MAX™ increases availability of nutrients
blocked by mineralization in soils and also helps to
diminish the stress of saline soils and pH extremes.
Benefits of Use:
• Activates beneficial aerobic bacteria and actinomycetes
• Improves soil structure (flocculates clay particles or aggregates sand)
• Solubilizes inorganic nutrients for efficient plant uptake
• Increases water penetration and water-holding capacity
• Improves buffering of extreme soil pH and sequestering
of salts
• Stimulates root-mass development
• Aerates the soil
Fine Tune Your Crop Nutrition Program
The use of HUMA GRO® products in both soil and
foliar applications gives growers the flexibility to
fine tune their nutrition program to achieve quality
improvements and yield increases. The efficient and
effective delivery of the necessary nutrient package
to the plant at the optimum time in a manner that
maximizes the product’s efficiency gives the grower a
definite edge. This delivery system also gives growers
a cost advantage over other soil and foliar- applied
products. HUMA GRO® products with Micro Carbon
Technology® set the industry standard for reducing
costs, reducing environmental impact, and increasing
the quality and yields of your crop. BHN and HUMA
GRO® are 4R Nutrient Stewardship Partners of the
Fertilizer Institute.

products and team at PHARMGRADE provide a proven
system that will increase current yields and build sustainable
soils for the future. A short list of PHARMGRADE products
can be seen below.
-Pharmgrade Liquid Compost (PLC) is a natural liquid
compost which nutrients are derived from food waste
otherwise destined for the landfill. This is a concentrated
biological inoculum for soil, leaf and compost application
contained in a pharmaceutical grade liquid compost
substrate for transport, propagation and stabilization of
natural microbiological cultures.
- Pharmgrade SmartPhos is a special blend of nitrogen and phosphate
that has been extensively chelated for maximum uptake by the plant.
Because of this chelation, more phosphate becomes accessible,
therefore reducing nutrient tie-up. SmartPhos also contains high
amounts of humic and fulvic acids as well as a high amount of microbes
and mycorrhizae for added chelation and root uptake. This blending
process (also known as Hybrid Fertilizer Technology™) provides the
necessary nutrients you need to promote root growth and leafing in
your crops.

“I

D & S TIRES INC.
n 1995 I had a farmer ask me to rebuild the tracks from his Cat tractor, something I’d never done before,” says Dexter Critel, owner of D & S Tires in
West Point, Neb. “I spent a lot of time cutting those lugs and guide blocks off with hand tools, then built new ones to replace them. The farmer ran the
tracks for three years and they worked perfect, so I decided to do the same work for other people.”
Critel started repairing tracks at West Point in 2000, and perfected his process well enough to open a second location six years later in Richmond, Ind.
In 2012 he opened a third location in Parma, Idaho to serve customers in the west and northwest. “When I started there was no history or no precedent
for rebuilding tracks, everything was hand work,” Critel says. “It was tough to figure out how to remove the old lugs and guide blocks, and equally tough
to re-build the new lugs and blocks into a uniform size and shape.”
As Critel and his crew learned more, they built their own specialized equipment to mechanically buff the tread off the outside of a track and then remove
the guide blocks on the inside. “We remove the worn
pieces with mechanical buffers,” Critel says, “and that
saves a tremendous amount of hand labor. After we
solved that problem, we made an extruder and dies
to make new lugs and guide blocks the exact size and
shape of those on new tracks. We pound those onto
the track by hand, then seal them in place with an
autoclave. When the process is complete, the tracks
are like new.”
Critel says that rebuilding tracks costs about a third
the amount that a farmer would spend on new
tracks for a tractor, combine or grain cart. “We can
rebuild them with a standard lug that’s 2 1/2” tall, a
low disturbance lug that’s 1 1/2 in. tall and add extra
lugs. We can also replace the guide blocks and can
rebuild rubber on roller wheels, driver wheels and
idler wheels. Most of our jobs are around $5,000,
compared to $15,000 to $17,000 that a guy would
spend on a new set of tracks,” Critel says. “We’re
saving people a ton of money, and we’re also making
better use of resources because we’re re-using the old
belts. I’ve had one guy put two sets of lugs on one set
of belts, so he’s already gotten three lifetimes out of
his original investment.”
Critel’s replacement lug work is done on tracks for
Deere, Cat and Case IH tractors, on combines and
grain carts. “We can work on any size tracks,” Critel
says.
These days Critel’s business is a true family operation
and his customers are from all over the USA and
Canada. His Richmond office is managed by his
daughter Tammy and his daughter Kim and her
husband Bill manage the Parma location. The
West Point location is managed by his son-in-law,
Marlan and his youngest daughter Brenda. All three
offices maintain an inventory to fit most tractors, so
exchange and turnaround time is usually very quick

BOOTH 25 - HOLT ARENA
Bruce Waldram and Kevin Ward have been working with Crop Insurnace and
Farm Policies for a combined 57 years of experience. Bruce started around 1974
and has worked with several different companies as he grew in experience and
knowledge. At some point he knew it was time to start his own agency and be able
to work with his son Matt, so Castle Lake Insurance was born.
Kevin worked on his father’s farm in his youth, and farmed full time for 18 years
after college. With his father and brothers they built the farm into a 4000+ acre
farm and cow/calf operation. This farming experience gives Kevin a different and
better perspective on the simbiotic relationship of Farming and Crop Insurance
most other agents don’t have. He’s also been know to help his growers in need and
can be found on a tractor as often as possible.
Both Bruce and Kevin understand risk management needs to agriculture and the
value vs cost to meet the individual needs of each grower. They work hard to teach
the programs and pair policies to meet those needs at the lowest possible cost. By
helping the growers understand the policies, they are able to make better coverage
choices.
Agriculture is still the backbone of this country whether the general public
understand it or not. America has the most plentiful and safest food supply if the
world. Idaho is the leader in Potato production and quality, one of the top barley
and milk producers in the country, and the best place to call home. Both Bruce and
Kevin are Idaho born and raised. They love the land and the people who work it
and are dedicated to continue helping in any way possible.

PENATRON SOIL CONDITIONER
21 Years of Providing Progressive
Potato Growers with Yield and
Quality Increases and Improved Soils
F
or twenty one years, potato growers have seen the many benefits of
using Penatron Soil Conditioner. One of the many benefits was observed
this summer which was to decrease heat stress due to anti-stress factors
in Penatron. Penatron treated fields not only had outstanding yields, but
the quality was much superior to nontreated fields. This was very evident
in the Magic Valley of Idaho. In two fields growers were paid for over 610
cwt per acre of high quality potatoes. Average measured yield increase
has been 47 cwt per acre with an increase of 11.6% more number ones.
Penatron is manufactured by Maz-Zee S.A. International of San Diego,
CA. It consists of 30 interacting components that work together to
increase crop yield and quality. While many “soil conditioners” only
act as a wetting agent, Penatron components include enzymes and
catalysts to stimulate soil microbial metabolism. Natural desert plant
extract wetting agents reduce water surface tention to insure faster
water infiltration and easier water uptake by roots. Cytokinins (growth
hormones) stimulate and accelerate root growth for better water and
nutrient uptake. Colloidal minerals and micronutrients provide essential
plant nutrients. Several extracts of plant species provide vitamins and
hormones that reduce plant stress to hot, dry and cold, wet conditions.
Humic and fulvic acids activate soil microbes and improve soil physical
conditions. This helps reduce clods and dirt at harvest.
Penatron modifies soil conditions by allowing more oxygen into the root
zone which encourages aerobic microbes that improve soil structure.
This results in better root growth. Penatron helps reduce irrigation
water demand resulting in 10-15% less water use. It reduces run-off and
increases the water holding capacity for all soil types.
Penatron is beneficial to all crops including grain, sugarbeets, hay,
corn, and beans. It reduces crusting, speeds germination and stand
establishment resulting in a faster start for all crops to help maximize
yield. Penatron is low cost considering it only needs to be applied once
early in the season while many products must be applied several times.
It may be applied with starter fertilizers, markout, herbicides, irrigation
water, liquid fertilizers, plant protection, and foliar sprays.
The bottom line is that Penatron Soil Conditioner increases yield and
quality of all crops by reducing water and nutrient stresses, reducing
clods and dirt, conserving water, and increasing root growth from
improved soil structure.
Penatron is available from your fertilizer supplier or contact Adrian
L. Arp, PhD., Technical Representative at (208) 734-2255 or call our

BAYER CROP SCIENCE
Researchers Find Luna Fungicide Eff ective in Combating
Early Blight Resistance Issues
Potato researchers are beginning to identify resistance
issues to diseases such as early blight which threatens to
significantly impact crop yield. This rise in resistance is
becoming a broad issue as widely-used fungicides become
increasingly ineffective in controlling destructive potato
diseases.
The significance of this issue caught the attention of potato
researchers across the country. Researchers investigated
the molecular basis for this growing resistance issue and
identified five distinct mutations generating early blight
resistance. This research identified moderate and high levels
of early blight resistance to penthiopyrad and fluxapyroxad
chemistries.
While other chemistries have growing resistance challenges
to early blight mutations, studies indicated that fluopyram
in Bayer CropScience’s Luna® Tranquility was not affected
by any of these five mutations. In testing, Luna Tranquility
provided control of early blight isolates, offering a solution
to resistance management issues.
• Dr. Jeff Miller, Miller Research, has seen excellent
efficacy results for Luna chemistries in his research on
early blight and white mold for potatoes.
Along with its reliable performance in efficacy trials,
researchers are hopeful for the impact of Luna Tranquility on
the future of resistance issues. Luna Tranquility utilizes two
active ingredients, which reduces the chance of resistance
issues and provides an effective option for resistance
management.
For information about Luna Tranquility, please visit

Highlights of early blight resistance research include:
• Dr. Phillip Wharton, University of Idaho, tested
fluopyram and pyrimethanil, the active ingredients
found in Luna Tranquility, to find that both chemistries
provided control of early blight isolates.
• Dr. Neil Gudmestad, North Dakota State University,
collected early blight isolates from across the country to
determine that 80 percent of early blight instances have
resistance to fungicides containing boscalid chemistry.
Gudmestad also determined that fluopyram in Luna
Tranquility was not affected by the five mutations
generating early blight resistance

As Thomas Edison said, “There's a way to do it better—find it.”, beginning in 1984
Land View Inc. recognized the need “to do it better” and set out to revolutionize fertilizer in Southern Idaho. Land View Inc. began creating new agronomically sound acid
based liquid fertilizers that would exceed the grower standard and set a new precedent
for best management practices for fertilizer applied in Southern Idaho. That desire
continues today as Land View Inc. strives “to do it better” than the industry standard.
In 2008 Land View Inc. established an industry leading efficiency technology termed
Carbond Technology for all soil types, and especially for problem type soils/situations. Specifically, Land View Inc. developed Carbond -P, a proprietary formulation
incorporating a suite of refined organic substances infused with P through a sophisticated manufacturing process. Benefits from these components permit the grower to
apply 30% to 50% less total P to achieve equal or greater yields than 10-34-0 or
11-52-0.
TM
Most recently, in 2015 Land View Inc. holding true to form found a way to do dry
fertilizer better. Land View Inc. incorporated Carbond Technology used in its proprietary liquid products, as well as added micronutrients into a dry fertilizer coating
called
“Granular Efficiency Technology”. Benefits from the coating have
followed similar trends from Land View Inc.’s liquid Carbond products by permitting
the grower to apply at least 20% less total N, P, K, and S to achieve equal or greater
yields than dry fertilizer alone. The yield and quality results to crops through a host of
field trials conducted in 2015 have been outstanding!

STERLING
hank you for expressing interest in Sterling products. Sterling
T
manufactures the 8800 OnePass, soil packers, soil conditioners, and
plow packers. These products are designed to help today’s farming
operations conserve soil, soil moisture and reduce tillage passes
throughout the season. Sterling products are manufactured with
high quality materials and engineered to provide years of use.
Sterling is specialized in the soil conditioning business; therefore,
our focus surrounds the concept of achieving the perfect seedbed.
The process of creating a perfect seedbed begins as soon as the
previous crop is harvested. We believe that every tillage pass through
the field impacts the seeding process. Crop yields are affected by
many different factors, some of these factors are uncontrollable,
however, some are within a farmer’s responsibility to control.
Seed placement is one of the most important factors that impacts
yields. Sterling products firm the seedbed without causing
compaction, allowing planting equipment to place the seed at a
precise depth while leaving some loose soil on top to cover the seed.
Controlling moisture loss is another important factor. If the soil is
left fluff y following tillage operations it will dry out to the depth of
the tillage pass. Sterling products firm the soil directly behind tillage
tools to reduce soil moisture loss.
Reducing passes required to make the optimum seedbed has
become one of the most important factors impacting farm
productivity with rising fuel costs. Sterling has answered with
the 8800 OnePass. With a OnePass, multiple tillage passes can
by eliminated by doing more tasks in one pass. The OnePass was
designed with today’s streamlined farming operation in mind.
Please call us if you need additional information or we can help
you in any way.

Simplot SmartFarm® Satellite Imagery
The Future of Agronomy is Here
The future of agronomy is not just business as usual. Today, customers demand more efficiencies and more data when it
comes to crop inputs, water use, and the impact on the environment. As we move forward in the 21st century, the strategies
farmers and crop advisors use to manage inputs will utilize technology to reduce inputs and increase yields to feed a growing
world population. Satellite imagery and variable rate applications will be a key part in the success of this new agronomic
paradigm.
Over the past two years, Simplot Grower Solutions has been developing the application of high resolution satellite imagery to
improve agronomics through the Simplot SmartFarm® program. Simplot has established a partnership with Airbus, a global
leader in aeronautics, to access their constellation of high resolution satellites. This provides growers access to valuable imagery
of their fields and operations at a very high spatial resolution for a low cost.
Simplot’s proprietary processing provides analytics combined with imagery to detect patterns and identify locations for
further investigation. SmartFarm high resolution imagery and analysis quantifies photosynthesis, shows inadequate irrigation,
recognizes disease infestation and identifies other potential crop management concerns throughout the growing season. Inseason adjustments can then be made to improve crop yield and optimize operational efficiencies.
Precision agriculture is the key to success in a farming environment demanding increased efficiencies. Contact your Simplot
crop advisor to find out how SmartFarm can help your operation.
See the Big Picture Better.
Simplot SmartFarm® offers precise agronomic analysis
using high-resolution imagery.
Improve crop yield and reap the benefits of
Simplot SmartFarm precision agriculture by
seeing the big picture with pinpoint accuracy.

AG-VANTAGE, INC.
A
g-Vantage, Inc. is a family owned business that has been designing
and manufacturing products to help prevent runoff and conserve water
resources through innovative designs and applications since 2003.
Ag-Vantage, Inc. is the “Home of the Culti-Diker”, the first innovative
product for water conservation that utilizes existing farm implements.
The Culti-Diker creates small, precise water retaining pockets that are
large enough to catch moderate amounts of water, yet small enough
not to interfere with future field operations. The Culti-Diker can be
mounted onto grain drills, cultivators, planters, and various tool bars
to form water retaining pockets with every pass. The Culti-Diker
incorporates ¾” triple seal bearings and high-wear T-1 steel paddles,
plus Super Oilite bushings at the hinge points. Furthermore, the same
unit can be switched from one piece of equipment to another, making
your capital investment more cost effective
In 2006, Ag-Vantage improved on the Culti-Diker and came out
with the next generation of water conservation tool, the Culti-Diker
MAX. The Culti-Diker MAX is an excellent choice for your final
water conservation needs in potatoes, sugar beets, corn and other row
crops. They form 6 to 12 inch deep water retaining pockets that can
hold up to 3 gallons of water. Plus the Culti-Diker MAX utilizes a free
floating design that incorporates dual down pressure springs with up
to 350 pounds of down pressure. This design ensures constant ground
contact to guarantee consistent pocket depth verses paddle wheels on
a common shaft. The Culti-Diker MAX incorporates standard 1 ¼”
triple seal bearings and 3/8” T-1 paddles to provide years of service.
The Culti-Diker MAX can be mounted to your current 4 x 4 tool bar or can
be mounted to any of our custom tool bars. All of our tool bars incorporate
a 7 x 7 main bar and a through bar frame design to provide superior
strength and rigidity. We offer various models ranging from 4 to 24 rows
with multiple folding and shank options available.
In 2007, Ag-Vantage added a pivot track filler to their product line. The
Trac Filler is a simple but effective tool to eliminate pivot tracks before
harvest. The Trac Filler cuts down on maintenance by reducing fatigue on
field equipment and stress on pivots. The Trac Filler features heavy-duty
greaseable hubs with 22” discs and long wearing replaceable grader blades.
Plus it utilizes a center stabilizer that keeps the Trac Filler centered on the
pivot track and controls its cutting depth.
Ag-Vantage now offers a new innovation in pivot track fillers with the
Trac Filler MAX. It is revolutionary in design because it allows you to pull
soil into areas that need it. The Trac Filler MAX can fill wheel tracks like
traditional track fillers, but with its rear door it also allows you to move
extra soil to deeper wheel tracks, or knock down mounds of soil. The Trac
Filler MAX design is a ground-breaking first for pivot track fillers.
Besides our featured products, Ag-Vantage offers a complete line of custom
farm equipment including Custom Tool Bars, Mark Out Tool Bars, Roller
Harrows, and many other attachments. We can help design and build what
ever you need to suit your progressive farming needs. Please call us at 208670-1041 or visit our website at ag-vantage.com and we will be happy to
assist you with your equipment.

IVI introduces the new IMPERIUM Storage Control Panel
T
he current industry gold standard for excellence in storage control, the Centurion,
is pushed to new heights with the introduction of the IMPERIUM Storage Control
Panel by Industrial Ventilation, Inc. (IVI). An Industrial Touchscreen PC with Solid
State Hard Drive and a 10-inch Color Visual LCD screen is the first feature you notice,
but it is tied together with optically isolated, rugged Web-enabled Input and Output
modules where storage management options are maximized.
The Control Panel has been expanded to include Thermadoor positioning, digital static
pressure readout and control, additional temperature, humidity, CO2, and cavity/
heater control, expanded user hierarchy of login access (including add-on camera), and
service screens capable of meeting GAP-acceptable data logging regimes.
At the high end, IMPERIUM offers custom tailoring of your storage season through
user-defined “recipes” while providing a continuous three-day weather forecast.
Simple upgrades to your Centurion Panels offer a pathway to fully communicate with
IMPERIUM Control Panels, eliminating the need for panel change-outs.
Three option modules allow you to choose between a “simplified” Centurion capability,
a “duplicate” Centurion capability and a fully enhanced IMPERIUM capability.
The IMPERIUM Control Panel will be displayed at upcoming potato conferences
and shows.
Shown above: sample Potato Status screen shot
from the new IMPERIUM.
“Our IMPERIUM storage control is the result of
our extensive solutions in providing the most
advanced technology for crop protection. And
although the features are greatly expanded,
the panel has never been easier to use,” says
Mike Machurek, Managing Director of Sales &
Marketing at IVI.

TRINITY TRAILER MFG., INC.
Some Say Tough. Some Say Gentle. We Say Yes
Most of the leaders in the potato producing and shipping
industry have one thing in common; they trust Trinity
Trailer Mfg. and it’s specifically designed “Farm Bed Spud
Trailer” to deliver their produce with minimal amounts
of skinning, bruising, or shattering. Unnecessary bruising
results in lower potato prices reduced demand and
increased storage losses.
The Farm Bed Spud trailer can be built to best match
your specific loading and unloading conditions. Our
unique “Spud door” consists of a flip up bottom half and
a fold down upper. This fold down upper enables apiler
to extend into the interior of the trailer cutting down on
drop height. The upper section is available in plywood,
sheet metal, or expanded metal.
The Eisenman family and associates at Trinity Trailer have
been building self unloading belt trailers since 1975 and
understand that the only acceptable spud trailer is one that
gently handles your product but is built tough enough to
take the punishment of field work and rough rural roads.
Smooth, surge free, unloading is a critical aspect in
avoiding bruising. The Trinity continuous yet flexible
chain and flap belt provides a consistent unload and helps
keep produce out of rear unloading mechanisms. Narrow
belts, 25” or 31”, are the most commonly requested to
DO YOU NEED AG PRODUCTS AND SERVICES? VISIT THE QUARNBERG COMPANY WEBSITE AT: www.northwestproducers.com
2016 EASTERN IDAHO AG EXPO AND IDAHO POTATO CONFERENCE • POCATELLO, IDAHO
achieve an even flow while unloading. “Spud bumps” are
suggested with wider belts and are effective controlling
unwanted surging.
In very sensitive conditions a raised floor, heavier and
longer flaps, and overlap liners are installed. These
options serve to level the floor reducing cupping
between the cross bars, cushioning the load, and
eliminating carry back.
In cold weather conditions potatoes are protected by
Trinity’s “extreme weather insulation package”. This
protection consists of double layers of bubble foil pack
under the side liners, single layer of foil pack under
the floor liner and foam insulation inside from the top
of the liner to the top rail. A very successful hauler in
Canada uses this package as well as an insulated blanket
over the tarp bows and routinely hauls in minus 10-15
degree temperatures.
While it may sound like all our engineering goes into
assuring we have the gentlest handling trailer we know
there is another side to hauling potatoes. Trinity also
protects your investment by building the toughest,
longest lasting trailer.
Our unique lightweight steel (carbon or stainless)
frameless design provides the strength and flexibility
required to go off road and withstand the most pitted
potato fields without cracking or breaking. Repairing
spud trailers or suffering downtime is the last thing
you can afford. Our customers know that when they
send out a Trinity trailer it will not only gently unload
their spuds but it will return for another load. Trinity
trailers are the most dependable trouble free spuds
trailers available. Trinity trailers are the easiest trailers
to wash because our unique design allows you access to
all areas and does not give dirt or road sludge a place to
hide. Trinity trailers require very little maintenance and
when a repair is required it’s quick and inexpensive.
65
Our customers are demanding but again Trinity Trailer
Mfg. delivers. Whether it’s a five year old, seven year old,
or a ten year old plus, Trinity consistently brings owners
more resale dollars. But look beyond the high resale price.
Ask another trailer manufacturer to show you one of their
seven to ten year old trailers. Not many other trailers
besides Trinity will have been able to withstand the
rugged conditions of the potato industry and actually still
be on the road let alone be a factor in the resale market.
You are a serious businessman who knows what it takes
to be profitable hauling spuds. Trinity Trailer is a serious
manufacturer that offers you a spud trailer that has:
The lowest incidence of bruising, skinning, and shattering.
The lowest maintenance costs and highest availability.
The longest life and highest resale value.
Why would you trust your business with any other trailer?

Spud farmers and shippers not only want a time proven
dependable trailer that will unload the least damaged
product with the lowest maintenance and highest
availability, they want top resale value.
