Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM)

The benefits of precision ag technology have an enormous impact on farmers, helping them to reduce critical inputs to use less to grow more, as explored in AEM and @kearney's updated precision ag study. The study is explored in a newly published article featuring Mike Mills of Reinke Manufacturing Co., Inc., Adam Barlow of John Deere, and AEM's own Austin Gellings, who point to the ways in which these technologies make farmers more profitable and sustainable: 💡 Crop production up 5% 💡 Fertilizer use down 8% 💡 Herbicide use down 9% 💡 Water use down 5% 💡 Fuel use down 7% Read the full article. ➡️ aem.org/news/precision… For more information on the benefits of precision agriculture, check out our recently updated Benefits of Precision Ag in the United States study. ➡️ aem.org/insights/the-b… #precisionag #agriculture #farming #precisionagriculture

🏗️ Infrastructure policy, the future of construction, and everything in between were featured center-stage during @conexpoconagg's @POLITICO Live event! 🔎 To examine what’s been accomplished for U.S. #infrastructure, and what the future may hold, the event gathered government and industry leaders, including @BOMAGBuzz President Brian Bieller. Bieller took the stage to highlight just how important funding reliability is when it comes to surface transportation policy - moving projects along, controlling costs, and providing more value to taxpayers.

The Agricultural Industry Electronics Foundation (AEF) Spring Plugfest is live and underway in Milwaukee! 👏 It's amazing to see the ag equipment industry come together to work toward interoperability solutions, which benefit equipment manufacturers and farmers alike. This week's event brings together a variety of technical teams across the industry to discuss important issues impacting North American agriculture, and test the compatibility of their products, working to ensure interoperability of #ag equipment around the world.

Best-in-industry education, networking opportunities, and the insights manufacturers need to continue to build momentum - experience all of this, and more, at the upcoming AEM Product Safety & Stewardship Conference and Liability Seminar! ✅ 💡 As a longtime attendee and member of the conference's planning committee, Aaron Murray of AEM member company @KenCookCompany knows just how important it is for companies to invest in building their own winning playbook at this year's conference. aem.org/news/ken-cook%…

Farmers in the U.S. and Canada are producing more food per unit of water than ever, and it isn’t happening by accident, say AEM experts Darren Siekman of Valley Irrigation and Jason Parker of Lindsay Corporation: lnkd.in/gp9HP4HV

AEM member companies @HuscoIntl and @GravisRobotics are shining examples of what our industry does best: It innovates, it builds, and it keeps raising the bar. 💪 Congratulations to both companies on their @conexpoconagg Next Level Awards wins!

Nothing can replace the experience of making lasting connections, and we're proud to say there's no better place for non-road equipment manufacturers and construction industry professionals to do just that than @conexpoconagg. See you again in 2029! #CONEXPOCONAGG2026
