We’re grateful to be featured by the Times-Republican and share the story behind MURST LLC.
What started as an idea has grown into a drone application business serving farmers across Iowa, and we’re excited about where things are headed.
A huge thank you to our customers and cooperatives; we wouldn’t be where we are today without your support.
Take a minute to read the full article and learn more about what we do:
Class of 2023 BCLUW High School classmates Lincoln Stover and Paul Murty have been friends for as long as they can remember, and they’ve also both grown up with a deep connection to agriculture — Stover’s father Kurt is a consultant, while the Murty family farms about 1,400 acres of land both northeast of Marshalltown and near Toledo along with father Brad’s day job as a banker with a focus on agricultural lending.
Just before they graduated, Murty and Stover launched MURST LLC, which is headquartered just outside of Marshalltown on Underwood Avenue and specializes in drone applications of chemicals and cover crop seeds. The venture has taken off over the last few years, and the duo spoke to the T-R about how they got into the business and their goals for the future during a recent interview.
“We both have been in ag our entire lives. In high school, we were in FFA, but growing up we both worked on farms all the time. I did some crop scouting for a couple companies, interned at New Century FS, worked at Corteva last summer as an intern on their crop protection side, marketing and sales,” said Stover, who is currently a student at Iowa State University and grew up near Liscomb.
