In the late 80’s RC Peterson became aware that there was a health hazard that was not being addressed when it came to handling grains. He noticed that this was not only a farmer’s problem but it's a rising problem on a commercial level as well. Grain dust originates at the time of harvest when the farmers first handle the grain. The grain dust continues with each handling from the farmer to the elevators. Farmer’s Lung (and other respiratory conditions), can affect everyone in the grain industry. R.C. Peterson decided this needed to be dealt with and he created the “Agri Duster”. Formerly the Little Duster. R.C. Peterson is a United States Air Force Veteran. He served from 1963 to 1967 during the Vietnam War. He was trained in maintenance and worked on the B-52 Bombers where he became interested in the electrical components of an airplane. He earned a honorable discharge. When back in the states R.C. went to school for business management and agriculture. He has had a successful career in the electric business for 45 years.
