Matthew Drendel

Rooster Ag’ Farm Management

Matthew was raised on a seventh-generation row crop and beef farm outside of Lindenwood, Illinois. On this multi-generational operation, the love and respect for agriculture was instilled upon him.

 

Matthew attended Oklahoma State University where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in Agribusiness. To further his education, he stayed at Oklahoma State and received a Master of Science in Plant and Soil Sciences.

 

Upon completion of his degrees, Matthew returned home to Northern Illinois to begin his career and help with the family operation. On the farm, Matthew and his twin brother Michael scaled the beef operation and introduced sheep to be grazed under solar panels.

 

Today, Matthew remains active within the family’s operation and utilizes his lifelong experiences in agriculture to provide high-quality, hassle-free, and “Boots on the Ground” Farm Management services for landowners and tenants alike. He looks forward to working with you.
