    The 21st century farm

    December 26, 2016

    Juicy-sweet corn on the cob. Succulent burgers on the grill. Crisp, cool lettuce. These are some of the foods we know and love so well—foods that bring a whole host of memories and associations.

    To ensure we continue to enjoy all-american cuisine, today’s modern farm is a lexis of high-tech savvy and highly engineered machinery. Oh there’s still plenty of simple hard work in running a farm, but today’s farmers are truly at the cutting edge.

    Here in Phelps County, NE, our farmers are the most vital element of the regional economy, and they support a wide array of local industries, including manufacturing and other ag-related sectors.

    Want to learn more about Phelps, (and about our 134-acre Iron Horse Business and Industry park)? Check out www.phelpscountyne.com.
