Major Program: Grain Crops
Grain Crop Production is an important enterprise in Butler County. Agriculture is the county’s largest industry, and grain crops are our leading enterprise most years. Grain Farms tend to be large and getting larger. Grain storage facilities have increased in size as farming operations have increased infrastructure and capacity. Farm leadership in the community decided to secure “grain bin rescue equipment” for the fire departments and rescue squad. &nbs
