We are looking for a hardworking and self-motivated candidate to help grow our business. This internship opportunity will give the selected student a unique experience to learn a multi-faceted business. You can expect to spend a majority of your time focusing on sales and agronomy. During the growing season is the ideal time to scout fields to ensure proper plant development and identify any issues that may have been prevented. You will be given the tools and opportunity to work with existing customers to better their farm as well as the opportunity to grow the business through connections you make. You will have the opportunity to work closely with representatives from industry leading brands such as Precision Planting, Channel, Bayer, Advanced Agrilytics, Copperhead Ag, Martin, etc. This is not the type of internship where you handle seed delivery and put up field signs all summer.
