How We Work
Regenerative agriculture is a whole-systems approach to farming that focuses on soil management and plant nutrition. This way of growing allows nature’s processes to work cooperatively and harmoniously, creating nutrient-rich, productive soils that result in disease- and insect-resistant plants.
AEA empowers farmers to produce higher quality, healthier plants with inherent resistance to disease and insects. We do this by providing farmers with the knowledge and understanding of the natural soil-plant system and providing the tools to build and monitor the system’s performance. These agriculture systems increase yields and boost profits, while reducing or eliminating the need for pesticides and fertilizers that inhibit natural growing systems.
We have helped thousands of growers implement regenerative agricultural practices and unique crop plans on more than four million acres globally.
Through our regional Farm Services teams, we have the expertise, products, and resources growers need to implement regenerative systems more quickly and successfully. This includes:
- Regenerative Agronomic Consulting
- Regenerative Plant Nutrition Products
- Cutting edge Agriculture Technology
Our close partnerships with growers and these regenerative tools make timely recommendations based on observations, soil and plant analysis, and data available throughout the growing season. Whether you choose to use our products or work with us through Groundwork contract consulting, we’re here to offer expert guidance tailored to your farm’s unique needs.
Regenerative Agronomy Consulting
AEA strives to have the most scientifically knowledgeable, best trained and most informed agronomy team in the world. Our regional teams are diverse, impassioned, knowledgeable individuals with demonstrable experience in many crop types and regions. Our rigorous training process prepares each AEA agronomist for the task of working directly with growers to identify limiting factors and create unique crop protocols that are customized for their land and operations.
- Complimentary consulting is available to customers who purchase a certain amount of AEA products.
- Groundwork contract consulting is available to anyone, with no product purchase necessary.
Our Regional Teams Help Growers Succeed
Our regional teams—with the most knowledgeable, informed and experienced agronomists in regenerative agriculture—offer on-farm and remote coaching to make actionable regenerative practices more efficient and effective. Our teams look beyond symptoms, diagnosing root causes and offering solutions to tough agricultural problems.
By working directly with one of these teams, growers have access to a wealth of deep agronomic expertise across crop types, nearly two decades of data, and real world experience in regenerative agriculture. These close partnerships allow for timely recommendations based on observations, sap analysis, and coaching through each growing season.
Empowering Growers Globally
AEA Agronomists Lead the Way in Profitable and Regenerative Agriculture
Our agronomists provide the leadership, guidance, planning, and coaching essential for growers who are looking for increased profitability and those transitioning to regenerative agriculture systems. They provide growers with a complete toolkit of resources to reduce inputs and rebuild life in the soil for healthier, more resilient crops.
AEA regional teams are located across the United States. We have a growing international focus with partnerships in South America and Western and Eastern Europe.
Regenerative Plant Nutrition Products
Extensive data shows that most crops have significant nutritional imbalances, limiting their capacity for photosynthesis. Once these nutritional imbalances are corrected, yields and pest resistance immediately increase along with the efficiency of photosynthetic activity, drastically reducing the need for fertilizers and pesticides.
To address these plant imbalances, AEA manufactures and sells regenerative plant nutrition products, including liquid micronutrients and macronutrients and microbial inoculants, most of which are suitable for certified organic farming. They are derived from naturally occurring microorganisms, plant extracts, rock powders, and humic substances. All AEA products are manufactured in the United States.
AEA’s regenerative plant nutrition products consistently improve crop quality, disease and insect resistance, and soil health. The results positively influence farm profitability by reducing inputs while increasing fruit size, quality, and overall yield.
Comprehensive Data Collection
AEA uses advanced technology, in-field testing, and analytics to help farmers succeed. We are continually innovating new ways to have the most effective regenerative toolkit.
Increasing crop profitability begins with analysis of plants and soil. Monitoring nutrients through plant sap analysis provides in-depth, practical insights into the factors that influence nutrient mobility at different stages of growth. Mineral imbalances can be detected at a cellular level, allowing for the precise amount of a needed nutrient to be applied before a deficiency creates disease or vulnerability.
With this data, growers can make data-driven decisions to proactively solve problems and achieve higher yields and crop quality. At AEA, we don’t guess; we test, analyze, and provide recommendations based on scientific data, knowledge and experience.
Getting Started
After initial conversations to discuss goals, issues and potential limiting factors, an AEA Agronomist builds a unique crop protocol for each grower.
- We provide consulting as a service to growers who purchase our products.
- We also offer contract consulting without needing to buy our products.
Ongoing support and coaching are offered through on-site visits and remote consultation that works to address issues as they arise.
