Have fun and make a difference

Farming Smarter exists to drive agriculture innovation at the farm level. We attract a community of passionate innovators and provide agronomic testing, scientific knowledge, and the right connections for them to succeed. We are a trusted source for regional adaptation of profitable and resilient crops, cropping systems, and agronomic practices. Farming Smarter instills a culture of innovation and takes a bottom-up approach that is gritty, practical, and achievable. As a flexible and responsive organization, we take chances, break the rules, and encourage failure so we can learn. We adapt and excel at innovation development and adoption. This is crucial to keep farmers competitive and viable in a complex and dynamic environment.

 Opportunities

Summer Jobs

We hire summer students each year to help plant, maintain, collect data, harvest, and process crop plots for research projects. These temporary jobs with the option to return each year are an excellent opportunity for post secondary students studying agriculture or related field to work in the industry while finishing their education.

Seasonal Term Positions

Each year we hire term positions that offer a great opportunity to gain some experience and meet a network of people that tie into the agriculture industry. They are short-term, grant-supported positions with finite terms. Contact Ken Coles to learn more.

Permanent Positions

Farming Smarter tends to grow often, so we like to meet exceptionally bright people. If you are an extraordinary candidate for work in agriculture research or communication, send us your resume. We also tie into a network of innovative partners.
