Mike E.’s connection to John Deere equipment started when he was young, beginning with long summer days driving tractors for a local farmer.

That early seat time gave him a firsthand understanding of how machines perform when they’re put to work and what it takes to keep them running right.

Over time, that interest turned into a career built around the equipment itself.

As a Lead Technician in Irving, Texas, Mike has always enjoyed working on John Deere machines, taking pride in diagnosing issues, understanding how each system works and making precise repairs that keep equipment operating as it should.

Day in and day out, Mike’s focus stays on the machine in front of him and the work it needs to do next.

His respect for the equipment and the craft continues to define his role in the shop and the standard he brings to every job.

Honoring Mike for his 35-year career with RDO🔧

A career rooted in agriculture often starts early.

For Ross P., Breckenridge, Minnesota store manager, it began behind the wheel of a 1935 John Deere Model B, the first tractor he ever drove and one that remains in his family today.

Ross started working early too, taking a job on a farm while still in seventh grade. Those early years built an appreciation for showing up, doing the work and being part of something bigger than himself.

Ross got his start with RDO through the John Deere Parts Program at NDSCS in Wahpeton, North Dakota. Without a sponsoring dealership from home, his instructor connected him with the RDO Breckenridge store. That connection led to a sponsorship, a part time role after class and a career that has now spanned 25 years.

Looking back, Ross says the best part of his career has been working alongside his team and serving customers year after year. He’s a firm believer that the best results come when people support each other and work toward the same goal.

Cheers to Ross for 25 years of supporting teams and customers at RDO 🚜

Planting season doesn’t leave much room for guesswork.

That’s why the model year 2027 planter updates from John Deere are getting so much attention.

In this episode of the Agriculture Technology Podcast, Tony Kramer talks with Stephen Schwartz about what’s changing, including real-time visibility in the furrow without even stopping the tractor, automatic adjustments as field conditions change and the ability to run multiple products without adding extra systems.

The goal is simple: make long days in the cab more predictable and decisions more data-driven.

Recognition from manufacturers is rarely about hardware; it's almost always about people.

We were honored to receive Wingtra’s Customer Hero and Partner of the Year awards. This recognition reflects the day‑to‑day support our customers can depend on from RDO team members like Solutions Center Specialist Briant H. and his teammates supporting the Wingtra product line.

From rapid responses to complex mission challenges, our Solutions Center works closely with customers and manufacturing partners to make sure UAV technology delivers real value in the field.
That level of commitment — the kind that shows up quickly, collaborates deeply, and stays involved until issues are resolved — is non-negotiable at RDO, because great technology only works when great people stand behind it.
