All of the food we eat in much of the clothing we wear comes from plants and animals that are raised on farms.

Farms are different in type, in size, and even in name. Welcome to Barn Talk. What happens at the barn stays at the barn. Until now. We're

going to let it all out for you guys. Here we go. So if you're if you're watching this or listening to

this you are getting the the raw first draft so there hasn't been any dry runs. We finally got all the

junk to work and we sat down and decided that the best way to figure out how it was going to go was just record and if you're

hearing this we must have decided that it sounded all right so bear with us there's

probably a few things that we'll have get dressed up, but we'll get those

all buttoned down here before long. So a little bit about us. So I'm Torque and I guess a little bit of background.

If you're not familiar with the YouTube side of our farm

and this is your first time hearing us. I'm a fifth generation farmer born

and raised here in Southeast Iowa and I've kind of taken a long circle journey to get back to here.

So I grew up on this farm raising hogs and ended up kind of leaving the farm.

When we got rid of all our hogs, I went to work for a construction company

and then I went to work for another construction company and became a salesman for that company.

And then...

Specifically for agriculture and hog barns.

Yeah.

Basically I went to work for a company that builds hog buildings. You went out of the industry but you kind of were still like you went out of the hog business but you still were kind of in the hog business. Yeah when that a lot of you can identify if you're hog producers 95 96 and then 98 and

98 convinced us that we weren't going to stick around with 240 sows for her to finish.

So that was when we quit Faroeyn and my dad sure wasn't going to go find something else to do so it was my it was my turn to go find a job

So first I went to work for a construction company building

and I just worked on a crew and then a little bit later after a couple years of doing that I went to work for another company
