His career in manufacturing began in 1977 after receiving his master's degree in philosophy of religion from the Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. From there, he went on to start Concord Inc. with his brother, Brian Dahl. The duo built the company to be an innovative leader in the air seeders business, allowing countless farmers to move to no-till or direct seeding of their crops. In 1996, the company was sold to Case, but the soil sampling equipment and sugar beet equipment were retained in a new company, Amity Technology. The company has continued to be a leader in innovation of agricultural machinery.
