Evergreen FS is seeking an Agronomy Account Manager to drive consultative sales of seed and crop protection to corn and soybean producers across a remote Michigan/Indiana territory. You will manage accounts, deliver field-level agronomic support, and build a high-autonomy, farmer-first sales book from a home office.

The role requires a Bachelor’s in agronomy or related field and 3+ years in agricultural sales or agronomic consulting, with travel within the territory and a valid driver's license.

Qualifications

• Normally requires a Bachelor's Degree in Agronomy, Crop Science, Agricultural Business, or a closely related field, or the equivalent combination of education and practical farm industry experience, plus a minimum of 3 years of demonstrated success in agricultural sales, input retailing, or agronomic consulting.
• Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets in a competitive agricultural market.
• Working knowledge of corn and soybean production systems, including common pest and disease complexes, weed management, and seed and crop protection product categories.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to build trust with producers and translate technical information into actionable guidance.
• Must have and maintain a valid driver's license and satisfactory driving record; ability to travel extensively within the assigned territory.
• Demonstrated essential abilities including business knowledge, collaboration, communication, customer focus, decision-making, and skill development.
• CCA designation or active progress toward certification preferred.
• Experience with precision agriculture tools, soil sampling platforms, or variable-rate fertility programs preferred.
• Proficiency in CRM software, digital communication tools, and standard office applications.

Responsibilities

• Prospect potential sub dealers.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for customers, building trust and delivering a high-quality experience.
• Build and manage a portfolio of corn and soybean grower accounts within the territory, focusing on retention and wallet-share growth.
• Conduct structured agronomic consultations — from hybrid selection to crop protection program design — to position right products.
• Prepare and present customized product and program proposals; negotiate pricing within guidelines.
• Identify and convert prospective grower accounts through networking, referrals, and field presence.
• Develop territory growth plans with measurable goals and strategies to expand market share.
• Own an assigned geography — plan routes and call cadences to maximize face time with high-priority accounts.
• Maintain CRM records of activity, pipeline, and competitive intelligence.
• Coordinate with internal operations to ensure on-time delivery and a seamless customer experience.
• Monitor market conditions, competitor activity, and input pricing; report trends to leadership.
• Manage territory expenses within approved budget parameters.
• Make regular on-farm sales calls and deliver agronomic recommendations tailored to growers' goals.
• Serve as a first-call resource for growers facing agronomic challenges with practical solutions.
• Support post-harvest evaluations to document product performance and identify improvements.
• Stay current on product registrations, label requirements, application best practices, and crop science developments.
