In this episode of Straight Talk with NDFB, our hosts visit Billy Kelly from Killarney, Ireland. Billy comes to the United States every year to work for Demeray Harvesting and Trucking (DHT)  as a crew chief. Billy begins harvest in Arizona and works his way north, finishing in North Dakota before driving back to Arizona to fly home to Ireland.

Emmery and her family have worked with DHT and Billy over the last few years to custom harvest their crop.

Learn about:

• What it’s like to manage a custom harvest crew
• Billy’s experience with the H-2A program
• What it’s like to harvest from Arizona to North Dakota
• Differences in agriculture between the U.S. and Ireland

Join us for this fun episode!
