An agronomist is a scientist who studies plants and soils and applies the knowledge to strengthen the crop production techniques and soil management procedures.
Agronomists are in high demand in the horticulture industry, they are critical in helping to improve soil and crop production. Agronomists work primarily with growers, scientists, and farm managers to develop better crop production techniques, soil management procedures, and improve the overall health of the farm.
Their time is generally split between visiting farms and working in the laboratory running soil and crop samples. An agronomist works primarily on their own but requires excellent communication skills to help growers implement and manage changes to their growing procedures.
