About this listen
This July, we’re celebrating 25 years of collaboration and knowledge, spotlighting the leaders who say “yes” to big ideas and bold partnerships. Few embody that spirit more than Bill Couser, a Central Iowa cattleman, corn farmer, ethanol pioneer, and lifelong advocate for agriculture.
In this episode, Bill reflects on a six-decade journey that began with a 4-H calf and grew into a legacy of leadership. From building a nationally recognized feedlot to co-founding an ethanol plant that revitalized his community, Bill has always believed in lifting up others. His story is one of grit, mentorship, and trust; especially as he transitions from leading at the front to guiding the next generation.
Tune in to hear why Bill is the 2025 Kleckner Global Farm Leader Award recipient, and how his life’s work continues to connect farmers around the world through shared values, collaboration, and care for the future.
