Chris, Bob, and Bill Henry paused briefly during harvest in front of the 2166 Case-IH Combine
Henry Farms is located in Robinson, Kansas.
The farm is a 2300 acre operation; our primary crops are corn and soybeans. We also have a 80 head cow-calf operation. We are also involved in custom spraying, swathing, baling, planting, and permanent steel fence.
The operation is run by four people: Bob, Bill, Ward,
and myself. Bob is the president and heads up the operation, and Bill his brother
is second in command, Ward
and Chris are part-time assistance, mostly during planting and harvest
time. Ward is retired, and Chris is an Extension Ag Engineer with the University of Nebraska.
We are dedicated to growing high quality grains and oilseeds. We are members of a farmer owned cooperative called Agramarke, Inc. All of our corn is IP (Identity Preserved) and most is marketed through Agramarke, Inc. Most of our corn is processed by Lifeline Foods, LLC in St Joseph, MO for products destined for human consumption. We also grow soybeans for seed production. We are a Agri-Gro dealer.
Please see our presentation, The Henry Farms Experience with Ag Spectrum, presented at 2003 National Agronomic Seminar Series (NASS) in Kansas City, MO to see how we farm. Chris spent a year in Australia conducting research as a Fulbright Scholar in Australia. You can read about his experiences through his monthly Chenry Chronicles.
