AgWarriors Ep. 53 | Farming Family Turned Engineering Innovators

Farming and building solutions for farmers has always been a family affair for Doug Applegate. After learning the trade from his father, he has passed that same passion on to the next generation, while identifying a need to help growers become more efficient in spraying. That need led to the creation of Praxidyn, a family-built business with a product focused on automating chemical mixing. In this episode, Applegate shares the journey from product development to launching —  which took seven years —  and growing a self-funded company.He also discusses the challenges he has overcome, insights for entrepreneurs, the process of building a dealer network and what’s ahead for the business. Plus, Doug opens up about his personal story and how his faith impacts his work and leadership.Connect with the AgWarriors Podcast across social media: Instagram: @ag.warriorsYouTube: @AgWarriorsPodcastFacebook: @AG WarriorsTiktok: @ag_warriors
