Trotter, Inc.

Trotter, Inc. Locally owned and operated by the Trotter family since 1962. We provide fertilizer, chemicals, custom application, grain storage, and propane.

Originally leased by James and Virginia Trotter from Brown Grain Company, Trotter Grain and Fertilizer in Arcadia is Trotter Inc.'s first grain and fertilizer business. Purchased in 1968 it originally consisted of an old wooden elevator and bins across the road. The first floater the company bought was a Trico and cost $5500. Everything was manual, it had a width of 50 feet and a little foam came

out of the ends so that you could follow the line in the field. Today floaters have satellite intelligence with variable rate flex-air, and can adjust the amount of fertilizer dispensed according to a grid sampling with satellite mapping. They run around $300,000 today. What a difference between 1968 and today.
