Hands-on agronomy that delivers results
Most yield lost on a farm is lost to decisions rather than to weather: a variety that does not suit the site, fertiliser applied ahead of a soil result, a pest scouted after threshold.
Our agronomists work on the farm through the season — assessing the site, writing a production improvement plan, and staying with it as conditions change.
What’s included
Scope of the engagement
- Farm assessments and tailored production improvement plans
- Field-based extension, demonstration plots and continuous advisory
- Farmer and staff training on Good Agricultural Practices and climate-smart agriculture
- Crop performance, soil health and input efficiency monitoring
- Soil sampling, interpretation and site-specific nutrition recommendations
Who it’s for
This service suits
- Commercial farms wanting one accountable agronomist across the season
- Farms whose yields have declined and need an independent assessment
- New developments deciding what to plant and how to manage it
- Smallholder groups and schemes working to a common standard
How it runs
From first visit to measurable result
Farm visit
We visit the operation, gather the records and samples the assessment requires, and confirm the objective.
Assessment
Findings are analysed against the relevant standard, the enterprise requirement and the market being served.
Costed plan
You receive a written plan with responsibilities, timing, cost and the result each action should deliver.
Implementation
Our consultant stays with the work, training your team and adjusting as conditions change.
Questions
About this service
How often is an agronomist on the farm?
It is set in the engagement, typically fortnightly through the active season, with a written report after each visit and access by phone in between.
Do you sell inputs?
No. Recommendations follow the soil and crop data, and you buy from the supplier you prefer. That independence is the value of the service.
Can you work alongside our existing farm manager?
Yes, and that is the usual arrangement. We provide the plan, thresholds and training; your manager runs the daily operation.
