Providing quality grain and pork to the World in a safe and environmentally responsible manner from Northeast Iowa
Farming is a way of life -- it's not easy work, sometimes it's not fun -- but we wouldn't miss it for the world.
​
Farming has taught us to respect the land and livestock -- you need to give to the land and animals if you want to receive from it. We respect & honor life-long commitments to farming and understand what it means to work your entire life to purchase and grow a family farm.
​
Our operation contains individuals who specialize in different areas of agriculture and we believe that these specialties together create a greater opportunity for success. Our operation consists of Bruce & Leasa Lantzky, Roger & Deborah Lantzky, Kyle & Grace Kueker, Logan Buseman, Chickasaw Farms, LLC, and Precision Spray, LLC.
​
Our farm consists of 4,480 spaces of swine confinement finishing which produces 10,000 head of finished animals annually and 2,700 acres of viable farm ground in Chickasaw, Eastern Floyd, Southern Howard and Butler Counties that we own, cash rent or custom farm.
​
We aim to provide to our landlords (and ourselves) the fairest rent per acre, raise the best crops and livestock possible. While maintaining the ground we farm on as if it were our own and are working to improve it for the next generation.

Mission Statement
To provide top quality crops and livestock from an expanding land base that will allow participating families the opportunity to provide an excellent return on our investment and obtain full-time employment from the farm if desired. We realize that in order to operate at peak efficiency, modern equipment that provides enough capacity to cover acres at a reasonable cost is needed. We operate based on honesty, safety, open communication, well-informed decision making and respect for the land.
​
In order to fully utilize a modern line of equipment, we feel that our operation needs to expand to at least 2,500 acres. At this level we are able to fully utilize the efficiency of larger modern equipment. We will also look to add additional ground as the opportunity arises.
