Kyle, son of Max & Sharon Smith is the youngest of 5, who make up the 3^rd generation of SFG. He grew up within the family business assisting in the day to day work. Some of his favorite memories growing up as a kid, was unloading trucks at the elevator and riding on the back of the terra-gator checking nozzles while his dad sprayed. (Although this might be frowned upon today)!

After high school Kyle continued to run pre and post applicators, haul grain and assist in the shop before attending Vatterott College in Des Moines where he acquired his Associates Degree in Computer Technology.
Outside of work, Kyle enjoys most anything that is competitive. Basketball and volleyball at the local Recreational Center and most recently weightlifting, are some of his favorite. He and his wife Kristin, who is the Albia Office Manager, have 4 children they try to keep actively involved in the family business.
 

Ryan Martin started working at SFG in February 2008. Graduating a semester early, he was able to finish school in January and start training in the slow season. When starting out, he was a Billing Clerk and Inventory Controller for the Corporate Office in Knoxville. He would also assist with IT issues and upgrades when needed. Now Location Manager of Knoxville-City, Ryan has enjoyed being able to meet the local feed customers and assist in any way he can.
 
He currently resides in Pella, where he has lived since Summer 2006. Eight months out of the year, when he is not working you will most likely find him out on the golf course. He is always up to finding new ways to improve his game and impress Max Smith.
