Titan to host FFA tire auction at Farm Progress 2022 

Qunicy, IL – Titan International, Inc. (Titan) has big things in store for the Farm Progress Show August 30 through September 1 in Boone, Iowa. Titan will be bringing back the FFA tire auction where new tires are auctioned off and 100 percent of the proceeds go to the Iowa FFA. Popular YouTube influencer and Titan Brand Ambassador Cole the Cornstar will be back for meet-and-greet opportunities. Two more big additions at the Titan booth will be Welker Farms’ Big Bud and the reigning world’s largest farm tire for the fifth year in a row: the LSW1400/30R46.

Titan is excited to bring back the FFA tire auction with a special guest auctioneer: Cole the Cornstar. The FFA tire auction allows attendees to purchase new Titan and Goodyear® Farm Tires with 100 percent of the proceeds going to support the Iowa FFA. Over the last 20 years, Titan has auctioned off over $1 million worth of tires, with proceeds going to FFA chapters across the country.

“Titan is proud to support FFA’s commitment to developing future leaders in agriculture,” says Scott Sloan, Ag Product Manager at Titan. “Students dedicate a lot of time and effort into their personal development with their community projects. We’re happy to support and partner with all the advisors, volunteers, and students of the FFA organization.”

Cole the Cornstar will be making a return visit to the Titan booth along with DC and Cooper for meet-and-greet sessions with fans from 9 to 11 a.m. and 2 to 4 p.m. all three days of the show. Cole and Titan previously partnered on a three-part video series to upgrade his Case 340 Magnum tractor with Titan Low Sidewall Technology® (LSW®) Super Singles. You can also join Cole on some recent virtual tours of the Titan facilities.

The Welker Farms family, another YouTube influencer and Titan Brand Ambassador, will be bringing their Big Bud tractor fresh from the fields of Shelby, Montana to the Titan booth all three days of the show. This is the Big Bud that put them on the map with their YouTube channel. Welker Farms will be stopping by the booth periodically to meet with their fans.

Titan will be sponsoring the wristbands again this year at the show. Stop by the Titan booth and receive a $200 tire rebate certificate towards a purchase of Titan or Goodyear Farm Tires, made right here in the Midwest. The rebate certificate can be redeemed at any Titan dealer across North America. Visit the Titan booth 24S for more information.
