In this episode of the Agronomy Answers podcast, host Zach Hefty is joined by Darren Hefty for a behind-the-scenes look at how Hefty Seed Company trains its agronomists. They discuss the balance between book knowledge and real-world field experience, why even veteran agronomists need ongoing training every season, and how unexpected challenges like southern rust or new insect pressure keep everyone learning. They also cover what it really means to be a sales agronomist — prioritizing the farmer's best interests — and why building strong relationships and listening well are just as important as knowing your products.
