What Does a Agronomist / Crop Consultant Do?

Conducting field scouting and crop assessments, developing fertiliser and crop protection recommendations, providing soil health and nutrient management guidance, advising on variety selection, interpreting precision agriculture data, developing farm management plans, and building trusted relationships with farmer clients.

What We Screen For

Bachelor's degree in Agronomy or related crop science, CCA (Certified Crop Adviser) certification, 3–8 years of field agronomy experience in the relevant geography and crop system, and genuine farmer relationship management skills.

💡 Hiring Insight

An agronomist's value is partly their knowledge and partly their farmer relationships. When a successful agronomist leaves a retail or consulting organisation, they often take farmer loyalty with them. Ask specifically about the candidate's relationship depth and how their recommendations have been received.
