At IntelliFarms Northern Division (IFND), we believe that knowledge is key when it comes to effective grain management. That’s why we’re excited to invite you to our Grain School Learning Sessions—an opportunity for farmers and grain managers to learn from industry expert Jared Holland, the owner of IFND, who has been in grain management since 2007 and operates his own farm with grain management/monitoring technology from nearly every vendor on the market!
These educational sessions are designed to provide you with valuable insights and practical tools to optimize your grain storage, increase profitability, and make smarter decisions—whether you’re using manual or automated grain management practices.
What You’ll Learn at Grain School
At IFND’s Grain School, you’ll get a hands-on, informative session led by Jared Holland, who brings over 15 years of grain management experience to the table. Here’s a glimpse of what we’ll cover:
1. The Economic Impact of Grain Management
Learn about the economic benefits of effective grain management, including cost comparisons, return on investment, and the long-term value of implementing technology systems in your grain storage. We’ll also dive into the cost/bushel analysis of adding a grain management system to your bin and how it can increase your bottom line.
2. Safe Storage Practices & Temperature Management
Understanding safe storage techniques and setting boundaries is crucial to ensuring your grain’s quality and minimizing losses. Jared will guide you through the principles of temperature management to keep your grain safe throughout storage, avoiding spoilage and maintaining its market value.
3. Energy Savings Through Reduced Fan Runtime
One of the key areas for energy savings in grain management is fan operation. Learn how to reduce fan runtime without compromising grain quality, saving you money on energy costs while keeping your grain in optimal condition.
4. Technology Integration in Grain Management
Technology is changing the way we manage grain. Jared will walk you through how to integrate technology with your existing grain management system, covering everything from simple monitoring tools to fully automated grain systems. We’ll discuss how technology helps you make informed decisions that lead to better outcomes.
5. Loss Analysis & Real-World Examples
Look at loss analysis examples and explore real-world scenarios that showcase how different grain management practices can impact your harvest’s profitability. You’ll have the chance to ask questions and discuss your own experiences with grain storage and management.
6. Education, Assessment, Recommendations, & Navigating Success with the EARN Program
