Hi, I'm Tony Kramer, your host of the Agriculture Technology podcast, and I'm sitting down with

agriculture technology and equipment experts to help you enhance your operation for today,

tomorrow, and into the future. In this episode, I sit down with Scott Schumacher as we

discuss John Deere Path for Construction Equipment.

With that, let's dive into the show.

Really excited to bring Scott onto the show.

Now, Scott, yes, like I said in the intro, the Agriculture Technology Podcast, but

you actually come from our construction side of the business. So before we

get started, tell our listeners a little bit about who you are, what you do, and how you got to where

you are today. Perfect. Thanks, Tony. You know, I was going to say, you know, long time listener,

first time caller. So appreciate you having me on the podcast. But yeah, so I'm Scott Schumacher.

I've been with RDO for 15 years.

Currently, I sit as the general manager over construction technology groups,

overseeing all four regions inside of RDO.

So doing all things, machine control, GPS, smart grade, anything, construction technology,

myself and my team kind of oversee that.

So, yeah, so I started with RDO as a sales coordinator.

Back in 2009, is actually when we started our technology group.

And I had the opportunity to go to Billings, Montana, where we first started it.

And that's when I was exposed to what construction technology is and what it does.

And ever since then, from that day on, it was like, this is what I want to do.

This is where I want to spend my time and help RDO grow.
