Indigro Independent Agronomist Crop Consultants. Working for farmers as independent crop, soil and environm

Indigro is an agricultural consultancy business based around a team of highly knowledgeable and motivated independent agronomists. With over 50 years of combined experience, we take pride in offering the most reliable and cost-effective advice to farmers, land agents and contractors in order to maximise output whilst minimising costs. Cropping advice covers all main arable, root and pulse crops as

well as specialist planting on both arable and mixed enterprises. We also offer broader agricultural consultation services ranging from cultivation systems to nutrient management and regulatory advice. We conduct our own trials and research analysis to ensure our customers receive the most up to date information. And as all our agronomists are members of the Association of Independent Crop Consultants, we have no alliance to any manufacturer or distributor ensuring all our advice is as objective as it is reliable.

If you’ve worked in agriculture for any length of time, there’s a good chance you’ll already know Rob and Roger... or perhaps both.

But what inspired them to start Indigro?

In this Reel, Rob and Roger share the story behind the business and the values that continue to shape how we work with growers today.

For Indigro, agronomy has never been about selling products.

It’s about understanding the farm, listening to the grower and providing honest, independent advice that works for the land, the crops and the business.

Those principles are still at the heart of Indigro today - combining experience, technical expertise and long-term thinking to help growers build resilient, profitable farming businesses.

Harvest 2026 is proving one thing already... no two farms are telling the same story. 🌾

Across the UK, it’s shaping up to be a real mixed bag. While some growers are pleasantly surprised by yields, others are seeing the impact of a prolonged dry spring and repeated heatwaves.

The biggest takeaway so far? Location has mattered more than ever.

From what we’re seeing:
1. Better land has generally held up better, but many growers are still reporting yields below what they’d typically expect.
2. Lighter, drought-prone land has been hit hardest by the prolonged dry conditions.
3. Oilseed r**e has been a real success story on the whole, while barley has delivered fairly average results. Wheat, however, is proving to be below average in many areas.

We’ll be sharing a more detailed post-harvest analysis once the season is wrapped up, but for now we’re keen to hear from those in the cab...

🌱 Every farm is different, which is why there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.

We’ve been fortunate to work alongside Will at Lowick Farm, in Kettering, over a number of years - helping build a farming approach that works for their business, their soils and their challenges.

“The Indigro strategy has never been to stick with one ideology, it’s do what’s right at the right time”.

From improving soil resilience to making the most of on-farm resources like compost, it’s been great to see the impact of a long-term approach and the results it can bring.

Hear Will talk about his experience working with us on a wet day in February. Thanks for sharing Will!

Understanding what you grow is important. Understanding what it costs to grow it is becoming essential.

We’re developing a new Cost of Production Benchmarking Tool to help farmers compare costs, identify opportunities for improvement and make more informed decisions in an increasingly challenging landscape.

Jack talks through why we’re building it and what it could mean for farm businesses in this video. Want to be involved in the pilot? Drop us a line today or email [email protected] to find out more 📧

His experience included cotton, vintage gr**e and fresh produce enterprises, all with varying climatic challenges. Returning to the UK, Joe completed a degree in Agriculture with Crop Management at Harper Adams University, including a placement year working within the crop trials industry.

📍 Region:
Central

🌾 Crop focus:
Combinable crops

🏅 Qualifications:
BASIS DIPLOMA | FACTS

💬 What they enjoy about agronomy:
“Working across a range of farm businesses, both in the UK and abroad, has given me valuable experience and perspective. I enjoy using that knowledge to help farmers tackle challenges and support practical decision-making on farm.”

Joe joined Indigro in 2019 to begin his career in agronomy, bringing a broad range of experience from different farming systems and environments.

All of our agronomists pride themselves on delivering independent, practical and cost-effective advice - and Joe is no exception.

Investing in the next generation of agronomists has always been incredibly important to us 🌱

For the last 10 years, we've proudly run our own structured Agronomist Training Programme - something still relatively unique within the industry - with 7 of our agronomists successfully completing the programme to date.

The programme combines hands-on learning within the Indigro team alongside external BASIS and FACTS training, giving trainees experience across a wide range of farms, soils, cropping and farming systems.

While trainees become fully qualified after their first year, the second year focuses on developing deeper technical understanding, practical experience and confidence in the field.

We're incredibly proud of what the programme has achieved over the last decade and the talented agronomists who have come through it.

Think this could appeal to you - or someone you know?

Another fantastic couple of days at the Groundswell Agriculture Festival for us 🌾

The whole team was out in full force, and it was brilliant to spend time catching up with clients, farmers, industry connections and friends - as well as meeting plenty of new faces along the way.

Groundswell always delivers such a great atmosphere; from insightful conversations and shared ideas to good food, music tents and a real sense of community across the event.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our tent for a chat - we’re already looking forward to next year.

And thankfully... the weather was a little kinder than last year too (not too hot! ☀️).
