Justin Durdan, Utica farmer and Illinois Corn Grower Association Vice President, is featured in a new series of 360 videos showing corn farm planning, production and marketing through the growing year.

The videos are available at www.watchusgrow.org/corn

The videos use the latest 360 degree technology, enabling the viewer to see all around the farm, or explore the planter, the sprayer or whatever else the video is showing.

The first of four videos is available now, showing Durdan as he plans his crop, cultivates, and plants.  Durdan uses the most cutting edge and up to date technology available in agriculture, and explains “precision agriculture” to non-farmers while he plants.

Subsequent videos will walk viewers through spraying and fertilizing the crop, scouting for pests, harvesting, and marketing the crop – all using the 360 degree video technology so that viewers really get a virtual “on farm” experience.

On social media, the videos are promoted as #360corn to make them more searchable.
