History

DynAgra is an independently owned, fourth generation company.

In 1924 Peter Schmaltz Sr. started his business in Beiseker as a Massey Harris implement dealer, expanding to include automotive sales; this business would later go on to become Beiseker Motors Ltd.  Various family members worked in the business over the years, but eventually sons Leo, Felix and Peter Jr. took over the business when Peter Sr. passed away in 1954.

Felix started selling fertilizer as part of Beiseker Motors Ltd in the 1960’s.  In 1979 Felix sold his portion of Beiseker Motors Ltd, and started Beiseker Agri Services Ltd with his eldest son, Bruce. In 1980 Felix’s son-in-law Jerry Schneider joined the company, followed by another son, Darren Schmaltz, in 1984.  The two most recent additions to the family tradition are Bruce’s two sons Tasha, now general manager of DynAgra and Remi who manages the agricultural services offered by Decisive Farming.

In 1979, Beiseker Agri Services Ltd. had 4 full time employees.  The company has grown to 21 full time employees. Now we sell a full line of fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, seed, finance packages, FlexiScouting, Optimize RX and Know-Risk Farm Management. 

In 1995 Beiseker Agri Services Ltd. opened a second location in Carseland.  In 1998 we acquired two additional operations, one in Carseland, and one in Standard. In 1999 we purchased another outlet in Rolling Hills.  All three of these locations were part of DynAgra Inc. The rights to the name “DynAgra” were part of the transaction.

		The company has always been known for its entrepreneurial spirit and has had a number of industry firsts. We were the first independently owned company to hire a full time agronomist. We worked with Charlie Belmar (Valmar Industries) to create a prototype twin bin floater, which is instrumental in the success of DynAgraVRT, now Optimize RX. In 2003, we created our DynAgra Finance division to better serve the financial needs of our customers. In 2004 we developed DynAgraVRT (Variable Rate Technology) to take precision farming to a new standard and in 2010 we launched our newest industry leading service, Know-Risk Farm Management, now both part of the services offered by Decisive Farming. We have always been and still are committed to meeting the needs of the agricultural community. We will continue to increase the impact and resources that current technology can have on farming. Working together, we are here to listen to your ideas and help you achieve them. Please feel free to contact us by email or by calling 403-947-3767 to let us know how we can better serve you.
