Award-Winning Dealers Share Precision Revenue Growth Opportunities & More

Apr 25, 2024

A trio of representatives from Precision Farming Dealer’s Most Valuable Dealerships (MVD) shared their keys to success during the 2024 Precision Farming Dealer Summit in Indianapolis. Adam Gittins, president and general manager of 2024 MVD HTS Ag, Jason Leary, ag technology manager for 2019 MVD Crystal Valley, and Scott Staum, regional advanced cropping system specialist for 2018 MVD Central Valley, detailed the processes and practices that make their businesses successful during a panel discussion. Here are some highlights from the conversation.

What changes have you recently made to grow precision revenue?

Staum: For the past 3 years, we’ve had consistent growth across all of our platforms in precision ag. A lot of that is due to increase in market share. We’ve restructured our team a little bit more since 2018. I believe that increase in market share is due to a lot more confidence from the producers in our area and a little bit more buy-in from our internal team as well.
