Agri-Pulse Open Mic: Deanna Kovar - John Deere
This week's Open Mic guest is Deanna Kovar, President, Agriculture and Turf Division of John Deere. On the sidelines of this year's Commodity Classic, Kovar shared the company's efforts to assist farmers with precision agriculture solutions for their sustainability and productivity goals. She says the company supports regenerative agriculture and renewable fuels, utilizing both ethanol and biodiesel in their engines. Like farmers, Kovar says John Deere hopes for a new farm bill, successful trade agreements, regulatory relief and tariff deals. Sales are expected to be challenged this year, but Kovar sees signs of stability moving forward.
