John Rider | 585-704-2649
Farming has been a passion of John’s since he was a little boy. He grew up working on the Rider dairy farm performing all aspects of farming. Additionally, he received his Agricultural Mechanics certification in 1987 from the Finger Lakes Technical Career Center.

His expertise has provided him vast knowledge within application equipment, combines, and planters. He is an avid learner, works diligently to understand all products, and believes strongly in customer satisfaction. John lives in Bloomfield with his wife and three children. When he is not working on the Rider farm equipment he enjoys hunting and outings with his family.

Seth ConwaySeth Conway, Precision Product Manager | 716-560-0124

Seth started his career working on various farms through high school and college. He spent 15 years working for a custom harvesting company where he continued to glean as much information on how things worked. In 2007, Seth came on board starting as a Product Support Rep and with his ability and passion for Precision Farming Equipment, it was apparent that Monroe Tractor needed to utilize that expertise and created the Precision Dept. with him at the helm. Since, he has been an integral part of streamlining the use of cell modems in the cabs of equipment for RTK/VRS accuracy within NYS without having to invest in a large infrastructure to do so. He has since grown the department and continues to push the envelope to develop new, less expensive opportunities in the ever-changing agriculture technology market.
