Bengt and Agneta Sturesson run three businesses: Fogdegården Lantbruks AB, Herrgårdens Äggproduktion, and Herrgårdsvind AB. These enterprises include large-scale crop farming, producing some seed but primarily grain to meet the farm’s own needs for chicken feed. The egg production yields 1,100 tons of eggs per year. The farm also engages in cattle breeding, with approximately 65 calvings annually. Herrgårdsvind AB generates renewable energy using wind turbines.

The business concept behind the new drying facility is to harvest and dry their own feed for the chickens. Thanks to this investment, they now eliminate the need for 80 fully loaded truck-and-trailer deliveries of feed annually, which they previously purchased.

“The entire process has been optimized. Everything runs more smoothly and efficiently with Tornum’s facility,” says Bengt Sturesson. An interview with Bengt, where he shares insights about the construction process, is available on YouTube.
