McFarlane Mfg. Co. Inc. Acquires CMT AG LLC

McFarlane Mfg. Co. Inc. expands its precision technology offering by acquiring CMT AG LLC, a precision equipment dealer serving southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. 

“This is a great opportunity for our customers,” says Cory Rothmann, McFarlanes’ outside sales, “We’re now fully staffed with a team that can help growers optimize their yield from planting to harvest. The acquisition of CMT AG LLC’s product lines rounds out our ag equipment and service offering, and we’re now a one-stop shop for our customers.” 

The future of farming depends on getting the best yield per acre. Precision technology helps growers farm smarter, and the technology requires expertise and constant education to ensure success. The acquisition of CMT AG LLC ensures that customers who buy tractors, planters, and harvesting equipment from McFarlanes’ are fully supported after the sale. 

“I’m excited to bring precision technology to McFarlanes’,” says Chad Toedter, owner of CMT AG LLC, “We’ve worked alongside the McFarlanes’ team for a few years and value their commitment to their customers. This partnership will only improve our customer’s experience. Planting windows in the spring are short, and harvesting days are long. Together, we have more resources to support our customers, day or night. We’ll be there from the beginning to ensure they get the right tools for their operation and keep those tools working properly.”

CMT AG LLC was an authorized dealer of Precision Planting, Ag Leader and 360 Yield Center solutions. Those solutions will all eventually be offered at McFarlanes’. Starting March 1, customers can visit McFarlanes’ in Sauk City to see the latest precision technology and learn more from the team.

Meet Willy: California Farm Bureau’s 2025 Farm Dog of the Year!

We’re excited to introduce Willy, a miniature long-haired dachshund with a big heart and even bigger courage, and the Grand Prize winner of this year’s Farm Dog of the Year Contest!

Willy may be small, but he’s become an indispensable partner on owner Marshal Hagedorn’s forestry and cattle operations in Shasta, Tehama, and Siskiyou counties. Adopted in 2023, he quickly found his place on the ranch, helping manage critters, tagging along for long days in the woods, and offering unwavering companionship during demanding logging work.

Willy has even taken naturally to moving cattle, surprising calves (and more than a few full-grown cows!) with his burst of energy from the tall grass. As Marshal put it: “He goes with me everywhere every single day.”

Congratulations to Willy and his family, a perfect example of how every good farm dog, no matter the size, helps keep California agriculture running strong.
