Romney Gets Support from North Carolina Farmers and Ranchers

Sep 19, 2012

The Mitt Romney for President Campaign announced today that North Carolina Farmers and Ranchers will be backing him in the tight presidential race. This support is good news for the Romney campaign, as it will help them with reaching out to the agriculture community.

The Carolina Farmers and Ranchers feel that Romney is the best choice as Obama’s policies have cost the agriculture community job losses and not to mention have failed to give a boost to the economy. The support for Romney by the agriculture community is led by several notable leaders including, North Carolina Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler, Former U.S. Senator Duncan Faircloth and Former U.S. Representative and Chairman of the North Carolina Republican Party Robin Hayes. The support is comprised of an organized leadership team who will be campaigning hard over the next couple of weeks to try and win over the hearts and minds of the undecided’s and mobilize their base.

The FarmCast, host Troy Randall speaks with Doug Luedke, Vice President of Service, and Davin Peterson, Executive Vice President of Aftermarket at 21st Century Equipment, to discuss the importance of proactive service and how it helps farmers reduce downtime during their busiest seasons. The conversation focuses on the Winter Service Inspection Program, a comprehensive approach designed to keep equipment running at peak performance and limit costly in-season breakdowns through preventative maintenance and expert technician support.

Doug and Devin explain how 21st Century Equipment’s service teams have evolved to meet the needs of today’s connected machines. With more technology and data integrated into modern equipment, technicians now play a vital role in both mechanical repairs and precision ag support. Through advanced diagnostics, machine monitoring, and John Deere’s Expert Alerts, they can identify and address potential issues before they become major problems—saving customers valuable time, money, and frustration.

Throughout the discussion, the team shares real-world success stories demonstrating how proactive inspections and customer-focused service help maximize uptime and efficiency for every operation. Whether it’s a large tractor, combine, or small mower, the goal remains the same: to provide trusted, reliable support that helps farmers and landowners stay productive and confident in their equipment year-round.
