Landoll Presented with Legacy Award & Business of the Year

Don Landoll, president & founder of Landoll Company, LLC and Farm Equipment Shortline Legend, was presented with the Legacy Award & Business of the Year at the Marysville Chamber of Commerce Annual Banquet.  

Nearly 300 people were in attendance for the annual banquet and awards ceremony.  Mr. Landoll was presented the Legacy Award by Michelle Boss Brent, a former resident of Marysville, and someone he personally flew to medical appointments for 14 years. Mrs. Brent was diagnosed with a brittle bone disease at a young age and had to be flown to Shriner Children’s Hospital in St. Louis, Mo. She thanked Mr. Landoll for his generosity, “I truly do not think I’d be walking today if not for their care. And I owe that opportunity to one man, and that’s Don Landoll.”  

Landoll enjoys helping those in need and takes pride in the many Medical Flights he has taken over the years. Landoll Company recently celebrated 60 years in business and has been a member of FEMA since 1972.

Video: Turning Better Feed Into Better Herds: Innovation in Forage Harvesting


What happens when a dairy farmer gets frustrated with equipment that isn’t doing its job? In this episode, we sit down with Horning Manufacturing founder Leon Horning to hear how a problem in the feed bunk led to a globally recognized forage equipment company.

Born out of a third-generation dairy operation in Pennsylvania, Horning Manufacturing started with one goal: helping cows get more nutrition from silage. Leon shares how his father, Leon Sr., built the first kernel processor rolls in the family farm shop after seeing whole corn kernels pass through cows undigested — costing valuable feed efficiency and milk production.

We explore the company’s journey from a side project on the farm to an international manufacturer serving dairy farmers, beef operators, and custom harvesters around the world. Along the way, Leon discusses the evolution of pull-type forage harvesters, the engineering behind Horning’s “plug-and-play” kernel processor kits, and why reducing downtime during harvest can make or break a season.

The conversation also dives into Horning’s row-independent corn heads, practical equipment design, real-world customer stories, and how innovations born in the field continue to shape the company today.

Whether you’re a producer, equipment enthusiast, or simply love stories of grassroots innovation, this episode offers a fascinating look at how one farm family turned necessity into industry-changing technology.
