Scott DayIn 1987, Scott finished his Ag Degree at the University of Manitoba. After graduation he worked on farms in Australia and Ireland for 1.5 years before coming home to partner with his father in the family farm at Dand, Manitoba in the SW corner of theprovince. At that exact same time, he also started a career as an Ag Rep beginning in May 1989 in Killarney MB, then the Ag Rep in Boissevain MB starting in 1995, and then MAFRI Research Farm Manager in Melita MB in 2005 (all located in SW Manitoba as well). This represented a 23.5 year career for Scott with Manitoba Agriculture as an ag extension specialist. He left the government in 2011 to help start a new company that invests in Farm Land and new Agricultural Technologies. This company is called Fall-Line-Capital Inc. and is based in San Francisco, California but works throughout the USA. Scott still balances full-time farming back home in Manitoba for 6 months in the summer along with 6 months of living and working in California every winter. Fall Line invests in Farmland but also in the latest Ag Technologies. They currently have invested in 16 new startup companies that are all still alive and doing well, which some would say is truly exceptional in the world of venture capitalism. Scott continues to enjoy international speaking opportunities, and contributing to Agronomy books and publications, most recently with the FAO/United Nations, the University of Adelaide, No-Till Farmer Magazine, and The Western Producer. Scott's unique perspectives have provided him with extensive and valuable experiences in zero-till agriculture, crop diversification, farmland development and investment, and general farming knowledge from many parts of the world. Scott has a keen interest in farm machinery and adapting equipment to work effectively in 0-till in many different environments, especially on the Northern Plains of North America.
