Application operator from Hallock, Minnesota,
recognized for skill, dedication, customer service, and community
involvement.
AGCO Corporation (NYSE: AGCO), a global leader in the design,
manufacture, and distribution of agricultural machinery and
precision ag technology, named Lee Pemberton of Makin’ Trax
Contractors in Hallock, Minnesota, the 2023 Operator of the Year at
the Agricultural Retailers Association (ARA) Annual Conference
& Expo in Orlando, Florida, on November 29, 2023. The annual
award from AGCO’s Application team recognizes the skills,
dedication, and customer service demonstrated by application
professionals to their local communities.
“AGCO celebrates all applicator operators for the critical
services they provide our farmers and food supply,” said David
Fickel, Application Senior Marketing Manager for AGCO’s Fendt®
brand. “Lee Pemberton and all our finalists are great
representatives of the dedicated professionals who work long hours
to ensure healthy yields across so many farms in the U.S. AGCO is
proud to be associated with these men and women and recognize them
with this award.”
Lee is well-known and respected by his colleagues at Makin’ Trax
Contractors, who nominated him as Operator of the Year. His
experience as a farmer and nearly 30 years as a professional
applicator have provided valuable real-world knowledge that his
co-workers draw on throughout the year. Lee was recognized for his
ability to care for his equipment and his deep field knowledge, as
well as for the guidance and consideration he provides his
colleagues. Jason Volk, Lee’s supervisor, noted “he’s been in all
the fields around here at one time or another, and he’s always
happy to help make sure our team is in the right place with the
right equipment and product.” Lee is also very active in his
community, once serving as a hospital board member and continuing
to devote thousands of hours each year as a member of the local
ambulance squad.
Matt Keehr of Centra Sota Co-op in Pierz, Minnesota, and Brian
Leone of Leone Grain & Supply in Arlington, Illinois, were also
Operator of the Year finalists and attended the event in Orlando.
“I was just honored to be nominated alongside Matt and Brian,” Lee
said. “They’re both such talented operators and good people; our
profession is really very well represented by them!”
