T-L Irrigation's hydraulically driven
system is unique among irrigation
companies and has proven to be rugged
and hardworking, just like the people
who produce the systems at T-L's
Hastings, Neb., facility, as well as those
who use them in the U.S. and in 80
countries around the world.
A T-L pivot was erected on the South Lawn
of the White House as part of President
Trump's third annual Made in America event.
T-L Irrigation Showcased
at White House
Erecting a T-L Irrigation Co. pivot on the
famed White House South Lawn was a
crowning moment for the Thom family
of Hastings, Neb. The three-generation-
strong family business was one of the
only production agricultural businesses
to be featured in the third annual Made
in America Showcase hosted by President
Trump on the White House lawn on July
15.
President Trump stopped by the display
and visited with the T-L contingent for
several minutes. They explained to him
how irrigation works, how T-L pivots help
farmers conserve water and increase
yields, and various specifics about their
products.
