John began with a custom farming operation that eventually led to buying, selling and servicing forage harvesters and selling Jan Veenhuis silage and gravel wagons. Sunova became a certified Claas dealership and service center in 2006 and mainly offers Claas harvesters, hay tools and tractors. Wishing to expand, John and wife Carmen began development in 2010 of a product that would go on to change the way of manure pumping: Broadcaster 1.

The inspiration behind creating a remote engine controller came from John watching his father-in-law climbing in and out of the tanker tractor to the pump tractor to fill the manure tank. John thought that this simple task could be done in a much safer and efficient manner.

John and his engineering team worked on developing Broadcaster 1 for tanker fill and small drag-hosing applications. The need for a more robust system eventually sparked the creation of Broadcaster 2, which is designed for larger pumping applications in multiple industries. Throughout the years in the manure and liquid pumping industries, technology has been constantly evolving to improve safety and efficiency.

With the release of the Broadcaster 1+ in September 2020, the SunovaWorX team focused on the main aspects of liquid pumping. Control systems require safety, and must be efficient, reliable, and durable to combat the harsh and sometimes unpredictable conditions of the industry.
