Hemp and Alternative Market Entrance

The WinField United Pro team is excited to announce the entering of a new market - Alternative Crops. This is a natural progression as WinField United Pro already services other major horticultural markets which include landscape, golf, pest control, and top 100 greenhouse and nursery companies.

 We look to provide resources, technology and new product development in this space. As part of the larger WinField United organization, we have access to a large distribution network, as well as, product testing and development in our state-of-the-art lab, in River Falls, Wisconsin. We provide comprehensive testing which includes soil, water and tissue analysis that can be compounded with the use of satellite technology.  WinField United Pro has the ability to use other cutting-edge analysis with drone flights where NDVI and DGCI can be used to look at crop health. With these tools at our fingertips you will be able to look holistically at your crop and we can help you find the best solution to meet your needs.

 Two of our most qualified and veteran sales reps in our industry will be leading our Alternative Crop Team - Drew Guffey and Rob Garcia.
