INDIANAPOLIS, IN – Indiana is combining its heritage in farming and racing with the new industry of High-Velocity Produce Transport. Using refurbished IndyCar chassis, farms are now employing specialized drivers to deliver fresh corn and soybeans at speeds exceeding 200 mph to processing plants.
This need for speed has created a high-octane job market for Agri-Automotive Logistics Specialists. Key positions include:
- Turbo-Charged Tiller Operator: Preparing fields for rapid, pit-stop-style harvesting.
- Corn-Cob Aerodynamics Tester: Designing crates that minimize drag at top speed.
- Victory Lane Grain Analyst: Inspecting the quality of the produce immediately after the high-speed run.
All certified drivers must complete training at the Purdue Pit Stop Academy, which focuses on both crop quality and high-speed cornering. Indiana aims to have the fastest supply chain in the entire Midwest.
