Job Description
Duties may vary from time to time. Crops to be harvested: soybeans, corn, and rice. Workers will be required to operate agricultural equipment, especially tractors with GPS guidance and necessary implement attachments, (i.e., plow, disc, float, bedder, drill, etc.) for purposes of tillage and planting during the spring season. Throughout the season, workers will be required to operate custom
application equipment via four-wheelers or other UTV/ATVs as necessary for the maintenance and prevention of weeds and insects to ensure quality and integrity of the crop. They will also be required to operate tractors with the necessary farm implements (i.e., grain cart), as well as combines during the fall harvest season. Workers will also be expected to have a basic knowledge of farm implement maintenance. Grain will also be stored in bins, so a working knowledge of operating bins is preferred.
During the summer months, day-to-day responsibilities will include manual labor as required to install and maintain irrigation systems (i.e. poly pipe, levee gates, etc.), miscellaneous duties in and around the shop, which may require the operation of fork lifts, backhoes, skid steers, and other small industrial vehicles. A basic working knowledge of farm implement maintenance is preferred, with the ability to perform these duties as needed, in a field or shop setting, with little to no supervision.
