The Right Experience in the Right Field

Every grower is different, and every crop has its own challenges. We match you with a PCA whose expertise fits your operation, backed by a team of more than 20 licensed PCAs covering nearly every crop grown in the Valley.

We don’t estimate pressure. We measure it.

A recommendation is only as good as the information behind it. Three things feed every recommendation we write.

Field scouting

Your PCA walks the blocks on a schedule through the season, tracking pressure as it actually develops rather than reacting to damage after it shows.

Trap monitoring

Traps run through the season give you real counts and real timing, so treatment decisions land in the window that matters instead of on the calendar.

Lab results

Extensive lab work backs up what we see in the field. We read the reports and turn them into a recommendation you can act on — not a stack of numbers to interpret yourself.

The paperwork, handled

We provide the Use Report documentation for our growers. Every recommendation is written down — product, rate and timing — and the reporting that goes with pest management comes from us, so your records are complete without you chasing them.

Organic ground leaves less room for a late call

Fewer approved materials, tighter timing, and a smaller margin for error — organic blocks demand that monitoring actually be on schedule. We build organic-approved programs around the products that meet the needs of the field in front of us, with the same scouting, trapping and lab work behind every recommendation.
