Technology at the Farm-Gate with Nebraska Farmer Quentin Connealy

Follow Quentin Connealy on X Connect with Q on LinkedIn "Between 2 Farms" Podcast I’ve known Quentin Connealy just from following him online for several years now. Not only is he an entrepreneurial, forward-thinking farmer, but he’s also one of the nicest people in ag that you’ll find online. I’ve been meaning to get him on the podcast for a while, and I’m making more of an effort this year to talk to farmers like him about farm-level innovation this year, so it was the perfect time. We’ll get right into it here, but first just some helpful background on Q: Quentin Connealy is a fifth-generation farmer from eastern Nebraska, where he raises irrigated corn and soybeans along the Missouri River with his family at QJ Connealy Family Farms. Deeply rooted in production agriculture, Quentin focuses on bridging the gap between traditional farming and emerging technology—bringing real-world perspective to how innovation is adopted on working farms. With a background in interactive media and business, Quentin has become a vocal advocate for precision agriculture, data ownership, automation, and practical ag-tech solutions that deliver value at the farm gate. He regularly works with technology companies, researchers, and policymakers to test, validate, and communicate what actually works in the field. He gained international fame in May 2017 after a video of him wakeboarding in a flooded ditch on the edge of his cornfield went viral, amassing millions of views within days. Since that time, Quentin has become an active speaker and content creator, sharing honest conversations about grower adoption, sustainability, and the future of food and farming. Just this year he launched a new podcast of his own called “Between 2 Farms” with co-host Nathan Faleide.
