About our Organization:

Bish Enterprises is a family-owned and -operated business built on the vision of its founder, Harv Bish. Harv’s agricultural ingenuity dates back to 1957, when he patented a corn-sheller conversion for combines. Two decades later, in 1976, he officially founded Bish Enterprises in Giltner, Nebraska, to deliver innovative harvesting solutions to farmers. Today, under the leadership of third-generation owner Andrew Bish, our family works alongside a talented team of engineers, fabricators and field specialists to carry forward our founder’s spirit of ingenuity and farmer-first service.

Our Mission is to empower farmers with high-performance agricultural equipment that maximizes yield, reduces waste and delivers lasting value. We innovate responsibly, build strong partnerships with growers and invest in rural communities to support long-term success.
