My display is of a 2000 acre grain/beef cattle operation in Iowa. The farm scene is taking place at night during harvest. You can see the operation harvesting corn in field across the road. Grain is being hauled to the large drying setup. The grain setup has two grains leg, one for unloading/loading grain and the other for taking dry grain away from the dryer. The dryer is a stacked version of a Sukup dryer. Dried corn from the dryer and dry grain dumped in the pit is elevated to a small hopper bin and distributed by a large pneumatic system. The system also features an overhead bin to load grain out. Three large Harvestore silos are next the the grain setup, one for high moisture corn and the other two for silage.

The cattle operations consists of one large slatted floor confinement building full of black/whiteface cattle. A large lagoon sits next to the cattle shed where a large custom applicator has parked his fleet of Balzer manure spreaders for the evening.

The operation has a large machine shed/shop for equipment storage and repair. It has interior lights and two bi-fold overhead doors.

A semi can be scene with it's turning signal indicating it is turning in one of the farm's driveways as it returns from dumping grain at the elevator. A TJ 4WD is turning on the end rows in the field as it is pulling a 9 shank Earthmaster tilling corn
