Technology is at the heart of farm innovation today, so we sat down with one of the newest LDI team members, Lindsey Sterkel to learn about her new role at LDI and technology on the farm.

You joined the LDI team this spring as a technology specialist—how does your role help support our farmers?

My role at LDI is to help develop a technology program. I help keep the sales team up to date and trained on the latest AGCO technology innovations and if they have questions about that technology, then I can help them build quotes and displays. We have a lot of mixed fleet customers at LDI, for example, someone might run Fendt tractors and John Deere planters or vice versa, and my job is to help find the right technology solutions to keep their data and fleet working seamlessly.

How did you get started working in agricultural technology?

What has been the best part about your new role at LDI? I like the challenge of it. In my job before

That way, you can have a seamless planting or harvest season. You don’t want to go into planting with hiccups and the first thing to check is if you are

due for a software update.

Are there any technology innovations at AGCO and LDI that you’re really excited about coming up?
