Field Notes.
Plain-English notes from our agronomists on how good agronomy works, and what to expect from whoever advises you.
What a PCA actually does in a season
A licensed pest control adviser is more than the person who signs the spray rec. Here’s what the job looks like from dormancy to post-harvest, and what you should see in writing along the way.
How to read a leaf-sample report
A leaf report is a page of numbers. Here’s how to turn it into a decision, and what a flag does and doesn’t mean.
Why we sample at the same stages every year
Nutrient levels in a tree change all season. Sample at a different time each year and the “change” you see may just be the calendar.
What to ask any advisor about how they get paid
It’s the least comfortable question in agriculture, and the most useful. Here’s how to ask it, and what the answers tell you.
Walk a field with us.
We come out to your ground and see what’s going on. Maybe we pull a sample, maybe we go through last season’s records. Then you get a proposal in writing. No obligation.
Got it, thanks.
Here’s what happens next:
- A person reads it. Not a bot, not a sales queue.
- We price it, shopping it across suppliers.
- We reach out the way you told us.
We will get back to you. Have the rec in an email? Send it to hello@syndicate.ag.
Need us sooner? Call 209-899-1612A person on our team will read what you sent.
If it looks like a fit for our growers, we will be in touch. Thank you for reaching out.
Here’s what happens next:
- A person reads it. Not a bot, not a sales queue.
- We reach out the way you told us, around the time you prefer.
- We set a time to walk your ground, or send what you asked for. No obligation.
We will get back to you. If you have last season’s records handy, bring them.
