Agronomist
An Agronomist is a specialized type of Soil and Plant Scientist. Also known as: Certified Professional Agronomist, Certified Crop Advisor, Certified Agronomist, Crop Nutrition Scientist.
Agronomist
Role Description
Agronomists have a wide range of work, but their role is best summed up as a “crop doctor.” They are concerned with the health and well-being of crops used for food production, fuel, and land reclamation. Agronomists conduct experiments to develop the best methods for increasing the quality and production of crops. Based on their experiments, agronomists work with farmers to help them grow the best possible crops, such as corn, cotton, soybeans, and wheat. They have an extensive knowledge of chemistry, biology, economics, earth science, ecology, and genetics.
An agronomist spends time in the lab going over crop data that has been collected to find out how to improve the next generation. They have to think critically and solve problems concerning the planting, harvesting, and cultivation of crops. They also develop methods for protecting the crops from weeds, pests, and harsh climates. After they have written up their research, an agronomist will make presentations and speeches about their findings and present their ideas to farmers who can use the information for their own harvests. An agronomist also spends a lot of time traveling and meeting with farmers, working with them to improve crop efficiency and looking at any problems the farmer may be experiencing.
There are a variety of roles an agronomist can specialize in:
Research
Research in agronomy includes crop productivity, genetic engineering, and conservation practises. Research agronomists often work in labs but also perform large amounts of field work. Almost all research agronomists have a master’s or doctorate degree in agronomy or a related field.
Crop Production and Management
These types of agronomists most often work with field crops. They manage crop planting and harvesting, and implement more efficient farming practises. This role may also include the management of recreational areas, like golf courses and sports fields. This job usually involves a lot of time working outdoors.
Sustainable Development
Agronomists in this field work with all kinds of agricultural projects, ranging from large high-tech farms to smaller individual farms in developing nations. Whatever the size, this kind of agronomist is concerned with helping farmers develop and implement practises that ensure operations remain economically and environmentally viable for the future.
Soil and Water Conservation
Agronomists involved in this field are often scientists and engineers. They might implement practises to improve water quality, manage runoff, and control erosion. Depending on the job, conservation agronomists may spend time outdoors, in an office, or both.

Water Management Alliance
Whether you work for us as a digger driver or as a member of the senior management team, there will be a considerable variety of challenges in your diverse workload and you will be offered real opportunities for career development.
Water Management Alliance

The Water Management Alliance
The Water Management Alliance (WMA) is a group of like-minded Internal Drainage Boards (known as IDBs) operating in the Anglian Region. We are building resource and capacity in the Anglian region in order to meet the challenges of climate change, sustainable water and flood risk management. The WMA works closely with our IDB’s, partners, communities and individuals to secure new funding streams and deliver innovative approaches at a local level.
We welcome partnership approaches and aim to deliver value for money projects using local expertise and experience.
Did you know Internal Drainage Boards…?
- date back some 900 years and are one of Europe’s oldest water management organisations.
- have statutory powers to undertake flood defence and water management works.
- aim to manage water levels and flood risk management for people and wildlife sustainably and aim to limit impacts of flood and drought within their drainage districts.
- are collectively one of the biggest managers of freshwaters and wetlands in the UK.
- manage drainage districts that cover 10% of the land in England and Wales.
- manage and maintain over 500 pumping stations, 22,000 km of watercourse and numerous sluices and weirs for people and wildlife.
The Water Management Alliance works for and on behalf of other Flood Risk Management Authorities as well as community groups, NGO’s and landowners. We also deliver significant flood risk management benefits and enhanced environmental outcomes on the ground. Our members are all independent and democratically accountable statutory bodies who seek to protect some 548,000 hectares in East Anglia.
The WMA Eastern Drainage Boards include the Broads IDB, East Suffolk IDB and the Norfolk Rivers IDB.
South Holland:
This includes some of the most fertile arable land in the world and is widely recognised as the bread basket of Britain. The area is home to around 60,000 people, a thriving local economy and an increasingly popular tourist destination that attracts visitors from around the country. The area is both locally and nationally important and worth the cost of defending and protecting, now and in future.
Although the entire area is at considerable theoretical risk of river flooding and inundation from the sea, the actual risk is substantially reduced by the work that we do in partnership with Local Authorities, the Environment Agency and Natural England.
The area's full watershed catchment area draining to the Drainage District is the same as the Drainage District, which means that we can provide a better service than we might otherwise be able to: this is because we are not compelled to take surface water from outside the Drainage District that we have no control over. This gives us an advantage in being able to protect the people of South Holland and reduce the risk of flooding.
If you choose to work for the WMA or any of its Member Boards you will be joining an organisation which is striving to provide employees with a positive employment experience. Whether you work for us as a digger driver or as a member of the senior management team, there will be a considerable variety of challenges in your diverse workload and you will be offered real opportunities for career development.

Did You Know?
Joe Nicholls Testimonial
I informed my tutors that I wanted to apply for the Marines, and they were really helpful with improving my fitness levels, leadership skills and public speaking. I’ve now passed all of the entry exams, and will start my basic training this year. I feel that college is a lot more proactive in helping you to achieve your goals, and I found it more enjoyable than school because I’ve picked a subject I enjoy.
