This episode of Idle Chatter aired in the early days of the podcast. The introduction and audio are a little different from what I use today. The information is timeless, foundational, and just as relevant to your success.
Agriculture runs on machinery… but profits on reliability!
Thanks for listening, Ray Bohacz… the Hot Rod Farmer






I found you on XM radio. I don’t mind if you give my name, it may show your listeners the expanse of your audience. I’m a logging contractor, not a farmer, but I’m in a rural community and we have quite a few small family farms in my area. I grew up working for a farmer about a mile from my home. He had 400 layers and a 2-day-a-week egg route (that’s how old I am) and grew flint corn for meal. All the corn was handpicked every fall by the local school kids for 25 cents a bushel. Dried on the cob for a almost a year then ground in a water-powered grist mill in Clarks Falls Ct. Sorry to carry on so long. Keep up the good work on your program. Farm or forest, the info is always helpful.
Best wishes, Jeff
Thank you so much for listening and for reaching out to me…and congratulations on winning February’s contest! You are correct about farming or forest… the engine and subsystems do not know where they are. And by the way….you are not old…we still handpick our sweet corn!
Have a blessed day and enjoy your Hot Rod Farmer t-shirt!
