BBI Joins Cornhusker Ag for Nebraska Power Farming Show
/BBI Spreaders and Cornhusker Ag are participating in this week’s Nebraska Power Farming Show, the second-largest indoor agriculture show in the United States.
Featuring over 900 brands spread across more than nine full acres of exhibits, the Nebraska Power Farming Show will take place at Lincoln’s Lancaster Events Center from December 4-6. The show is a production of the Iowa-Nebraska Equipment Dealers Association. Admission to the show, as well as parking, is free to all who attend.
BBI is proud to join its Nebraska dealer, Cornhusker Ag of Oakland, at the show. Billy Johnson from Cornhusker Ag, along with Lee Kilpatrick, Director of Sales and Marketing at BBI Spreaders, will educate heartland farmers on the benefits of BBI’s line of spreaders optimized for precision agriculture.
Johnson and Kilpatrick will be showing BBI’s flagship hydraulic spreader for precision applications of granular fertilizer and lime, MagnaSpread. The booth will feature BBI’s biggest-ever version of MagnaSpread, aimed at heavy-duty work on large-acreage farms. The pull-type MagnaSpread on display in Lincoln will feature a 20-ton walking-beam suspension, remote-controlled tarp and light system, weight system, and variable rate controls with ISOBUS compatibility.
“We’re very excited to get back to Nebraska for this year’s Power Farming Show with this workhorse MagnaSpread model and our friends at Cornhusker Ag,” stated Kilpatrick. “Any opportunity we have to work with our partners at Cornhusker Ag in serving the Nebraska farming community is something we are honored to do. Farmers in the heartland have always sought out the newest, best equipment to optimize their economics through greater efficiencies and better yields. They challenge us at BBI every year, to ensure that we deliver to them the best equipment for their fields.”

A strong start is vital for the successful growth of any crop, including winter wheat. While many wheat growers focus on preparing the seedbed and ensuring optimal seed placement, there is one important element that may be overlooked in some winter wheat programs: starter phosphorus.
