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.

The Pink Pig Farm
We are family based on a real working farm. Our values include honesty and integrity both in the food we serve and how we treat each other. Ego's need not apply!
We employ 38 full and part time people and more seasonally in the school holidays. We are looking for upbeat, smiley people to work with our customers, we hire for attitude and then train in house. We are also looking for experienced catering staff to create amazing food in our three kitchens. We put on shows in school holidays so dressing up is a requirement for some. We always needs Santas!
We have the Greedy Pig Cafe and tea room with a 'food from the farm' section where you can buy homemade sausages, bacon, cakes, egg, beers and jams and other local goodies. We have indoor and outdoor play for children including a soft play and a brand new indoor 'imaginative play'. Our farm trail outdoors takes you to see our animals and you can take a trailer ride to see the pigs and cuddle our smaller animals.
Tourism seems to be increasing in the area and this is a market that we need to embrace as well as looking after our local people.

Leadership at every level
The success of our company is built from having inspiring, creative leaders at all levels of the business. Because we believe that leadership shouldn’t – and doesn’t – come from the top alone. We need energising leaders in all parts of the business.
That’s why we invest heavily in developing internal excellence through leadership development programmes – combining internal and external training with a review process – to identify and develop talent at our company.
Our global employee development programme (GEDP) is the cornerstone of our people strategy and fosters leadership development by managing the performance, potential, development and careers of our people.
This approach to talent management not only creates career opportunities for those who strive to develop their potential. It also ensures we develop a pipeline of talent ready to occupy senior leadership positions.
Developing tomorrow’s leaders is also about providing excellent learning opportunities. The work of our university plays a key role here, offering corporate leadership development programmes to nurture our future leaders.

With over four decades of success within the agricultural sprayer market, Househam is able to combine cutting edge technology devised by some of the industry's best engineers with precision manufacturing and speed to market.
The Vision of Househam
The challenges faced by agriculture are massive. The ever increasing world population relies on the food agriculture produces and this represents a challenge for the industry, globally, unlike any other industry has hitherto faced.
However, bringing more and more land into agricultural use can have detrimental effects of the environment by encouraging deforestation, which releases more CO2 into the atmosphere, and the draining of natural wetlands both of which increase the risk of flooding.
By protecting and improving the vast areas of soil currently under cultivation and maximising its productive capacity with advances in plant breeding, nutrient management, crop protection products and innovative application technology, we should be able to go a long way towards producing higher volumes of food which is healthier, safer and produced in a more environmentally friendly and sustainable manner.
Our aim is to use new and innovative technology to enable us, as leading manufacturers of crop sprayers, to produce machines which enable growers not only to apply crop protection products very accurately, but also to help protect soil structure by reducing soil compaction. Our links with the leading agricultural research bodies and our continuing dialogue with practical farmers and contractors helps us to produce leading edge crop sprayers which meet the needs of users around the world.
