Coy’s named Farm Family of the Year

Indiana AgriNews and Beck’s Hybrids have selected the Coy Family of Decatur County as the 2011 Indiana Farm Family of the Year.

The Coy’s, Jim, Jeanie and daughters Paige and Abby farm 900 acres.

“Corn and soybeans and we have a small show pig operation which the girl’s started when they started in 4-H and now that’s carried on,” said Jim Coy. “We started no-tilling back in the late 70’s on soybeans, then we started doing corn and now everything has been no-till for several years now.

The Coy’s were honored during a presentation at the Indiana Farm Bureau state convention on Saturday, December 11.
