From soil to harvest: Agrii’s commitment to Scottish agriculture

Agrii is part of the team here and it really works for us as a business

Jimmy Doig, Farm Manager, Keithick Farms

With a team of almost 50 agronomists supporting farmers nationwide, Agrii is Scotland’s leading farm advice, technology and supply business. Its complete service for Scottish farmers represents the culmination of decades of investment from Agrii and its proceeding companies.

We spoke with Agrii’s Scottish business managers to determine what this investment offers farmers and their thoughts for the future.

When Agrii was formed in 2012 following the merger of CSC Crop Protection, UAP and Masstock by its parent company, Origin, it inherited a strong presence in Scotland from the three businesses. Overnight, Agrii became the market leader with a well-spread network of depots, research and development sites and a large, experienced team.

Future Farming Expo – October 2023

The Scottish agronomy and RHIZA teams travelled to Aberdeen to attend the very first Future Farming Expo, hosted at P&J Live. The show demonstrated a diverse range of businesses from glamping to farm machinery, and attracted a wide-ranging variety of visitors. It was a great way to make waves in the local area and generated a great deal of interest in what Agrii and RHIZA can offer local growers (see right).

AgriScot – November 2023

Agrii’s attendance at AgriScot was much appreciated by local growers, with members of the team on hand to offer advice on all areas of Agrii’s offering from agronomy to forage, precision to animal health. It was a very busy and successful show and we hope to attend again in November 2024!
