JOHNSTON, IOWA (RFD-TV) — From muddy boots to boardrooms, Dirt Diaries: The FarmHER + RanchHER Podcast is the place where women of agriculture get real.
Taryn Fischels is a Product Marketing Manager for Precision Upgrades at John Deere. She joins Kirbe on the next episode of the podcast — and joined us on Thursday’s Market Day Report to share more about it.
Growing up in northeast Iowa, she developed a deep appreciation for farmers and the role they play in feeding the world—and now she channels that passion to ensure farmers have access to the very best technology. Whether it’s creating launch plans for new Precision Upgrade Kits, working alongside dealers, or even producing how-to videos for the John Deere YouTube Channel, Taryn is focused on meeting farmers where they are and helping them get the most out of their equipment.
