• Development of “greenfield” sugarcane and Bana grass plantations.
• Agriculture and natural resource project management.
• Nutrient budgeting and planning.
• Sugarcane crop ripener management.
• Cover crop and pasture seed production and management.
• Precision agricultural practices (like variable rate nutrient and soil amendment application maps).
• Regenerative farming practices.
• Soil conservation.
• Farm drainage.
• Research and Development into new agricultural chemicals and bio stimulants.
• Specific areas of natural resource management (ie. Farm water quality management)
• Agricultural extension and training.
