Agronomist

Alaska Mill and Feed

Anchorage, AK

As a farmer-owned cooperative, Skagit Farmers Supply’s Alaska division, Alaska Mill and Feed, provides farmers, homeowners, businesses, families and communities across the state with services through agronomy, erosion control, animal feed, deicing products, retail and wholesale operations.

Our Agronomy division serves primarily the Matanuska-Susitna Valley, Kenai Peninsula, Fairbanks North Star Borough and the Delta Junction area — one of the most resilient and distinctive agricultural communities in the nation. Over 40 different crops are grown including potatoes, barley, oats, hay, cabbage, root vegetables, native grass seed, and specialty small grains uniquely suited to Alaska's long summer daylight hours. Specializing in conventional fertilizer blends, turf & ornamental management materials, farm seed and Ag services, the company is proud to support agriculture through its agronomy facility: a primary plant in Anchorage serving from the Mat-Su Valley north to Fairbanks and south to Homer with custom blending capabilities for dry fertilizer and native grass seed blends.

We utilize a wide variety of equipment and technology that enables growers, crop consultants, farm staff, precision specialists, contractors and operation managers to work as one to improve workflow and increase efficiencies — essential in a state where operations may span remote terrain and compressed growing seasons.

Coordinate with fertilizer and chemical applicators to assure effective use of manpower, time, and equipment.
Ensure that relevant federal and state regulations are followed.
Exhibit an ability to receive feedback, adapt to new processes and continuously develop skills.
Demonstrate the ability to collaborate, communicate well and effectively relay information with an emphasis on developing positive professional relationships.
Practice punctual and reliable attendance.
Perform other duties as assigned.

1 - 3 years of related professional experience.
Experience in turf and ornamental management, including but not limited to greenhouses, golf courses, nurseries, landscaping, etc.
Possess Certified Crop Adviser (CCA) and Alaska-registered pesticide applicator certifications or obtain them within the first year of employment.
