- Scout fields for emergence inspections, weeds, insects, disease and nutrition issues, ensuring that applications occur when conditionals are optimal
- Document field evaluation of seed, chemical, specialty products and fertilizers
- Gather, compile, analyze and interpret test results and prepare progress reports
- Develop and oversee research programs incorporating current developments to improve existing products and study potential products to implement
- Actively work to expand our retail business including seed and related products

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
- A self starter with a Degree or Diploma in Agriculture, with a minimum of 5 years industry experience as well as experience with digital and precision agriculture
- Certified Crop Advisor (CCA) designation would be considered an asset
- Applicants must be registered or need to become registered with the Saskatchewan Institute of Agrologists as defined by The Agrologists Act
