Small family farms

Here, bad advice costs the whole season, because there's no room to get it wrong twice.

Up to about 25 acres, with no agronomist on staff.

The grower

How we work with this grower

This is the grower who farms with family or two or three hired hands, and gets advice from whoever sells them their inputs. That's the root of the problem: the recommendation comes from someone who profits from it.

We work with spaced-out visits and simple plans, with rates in the units the grower actually uses, not lab tables. We also explain why each thing gets applied, because the person making decisions in the field is the grower.

The soil test is often their first one ever, and it almost always shows something they've been over-applying for years. That one correction usually pays for the service.

  • No agronomist on staff
  • Tight budget
  • First soil test
