## Senior Agriculturalists Austin Holy & Curt Meyer

At American Crystal Sugar Company, technology drives every career path. It’s found in action on the ground and above it.

On the ground, Senior Agriculturalist Austin Holy focuses on building perfectly uniform piles of sugarbeets. With automated piler technology, Austin and his team create balanced piles that better maintain consistent temperatures and airflow. Their attention to detail reduces crop loss.

In the sky, drone technology gives Senior Agriculturalist Curt Meyer a new perspective on sugarbeet storage. Using a drone equipped with a thermal camera, Curt identifies hot spots, which are areas of heat that can accelerate spoilage. This advancement allows crews to act quickly and protect crop quality.

From the piles to the skies, their work reflects how innovation continues to improve outcomes across American Crystal Sugar Company.
