With 600 acres to go, the recent rains had put everything on hold. The two brothers had always wanted to farm and carry on the Cheney family tradition. After graduating from Iowa State University — Adam in May 2022 and Alex in December 2023 — the two brothers returned home to join their parents, Tom and Michelle, in the family farming operation. Adam, 25, holds a BA in ag business with a minor in entrepreneurship, and Alex, 23, holds a BA in ag studies.
