Stalcup Ag Service is celebrating 75 years of growth and leadership in the farm management, rural appraisal, and farm real estate industry
The origin of the company was in the Great Depression of the thirties. Henry (Buck) Stalcup, the founder of the company, was born and raised in Indiana, graduated from Purdue, taught vocational agriculture for 10 years, then took a job as a farm agent for Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Co. of Peoria, Illinois.
In the late 60’s, the company was at a crossroads. The company ownership could have stayed with Buck Stalcup and Arne Waldstein, but they decided on a different course. Several factors affected long-range planning decisions that transformed the company.
