Nature Harvest Farms is building a high-efficiency, sustainable farming model using protected cultivation techniques. By combining polyhouse and net house infrastructure with precision control over climate, fertigation, and pest management, NHF delivers high-quality, year-round crops with minimal environmental impact. Role Overview We are seeking a hands-on Agronomist to lead the design, execution, and optimization of all agronomic activities on our soil-based protected farm. You will play a key role in managing crop health, improving yields, and implementing best practices in modern, climate-controlled farming. This is a field-intensive, execution-driven role requiring deep agronomic expertise, problem-solving, and hands-on work across the entire crop lifecycle—from planning and planting to harvest and post-harvest handling. Key Responsibilities Crop & Field Management · Design crop cycles based on site conditions, infrastructure, and market demand. · Guide all agronomic activities including seed selection, soil preparation, planting, fertigation, and IPM. · Monitor environmental parameters (temperature, humidity, light) and adjust systems for optimal crop health. · Conduct routine crop scouting for nutrient deficiencies, pest/disease pressure, and plant growth benchmarking. · Manage pruning, trellising, and other crop-specific practices for yield and quality optimization. Infrastructure & Systems Oversight · Oversee installation and calibration of drip irrigation and fertigation systems. · Ensure proper functioning of polyhouse/net house infrastructure, including shade nets, fans, and foggers. · Support development and refinement of SOPs for nursery, transplanting, fertigation schedules, and pest control. · Manage irrigation and fertigation schedules using drip systems and water-soluble nutrients. · Ensure proper calibration of tools and adherence to hygiene protocols across the farm. Documentation & Reporting · Maintain accurate field logs, fertigation records, pest monitoring reports, and yield data. · Collaborate with the operations team to track performance metrics and improve efficiency. · Stay updated on relevant agronomy research, regulatory advisories, and climate-smart practices. Qualifications · Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Agronomy, Horticulture, Soil Science, or Agricultural Engineering. · 1-2 years of experience in protected cultivation with soil (polyhouse or net house setups). · Proficiency in fertigation, drip irrigation, pest management, and climate-controlled farming practices. · Strong documentation, communication, and organizational skills. · Proficiency in farm recordkeeping tools (Excel or Google Sheets). Job Type: Full-time Pay: ₹20,000.00 - ₹25,000.00 per month Work Location: In person
