Crop Scout Intern

May - September 2022 • Lena, IL

What I liked

The hours were pretty nice. Pay was overall very good as well.

What I wish was different

There wasn’t much flexibility if you had an appointment or something during the time you need to be at work.

Advice

An extremely good internship when starting in agriculture! Highly recommend. Just do your work well and fast and you will have a lot of free time.

Crop Scout

May - August 2020 • Sterling, IL

What I liked

I enjoyed working outside everyday, instead of being in an office all day. I also loved meeting the farmers and creating a relationship with them. This internship also taught me a lot about the crop side of the Ag Industry that I had little knowledge of. My coworkers and boss were great people and I really enjoyed working with each of them. You really learn a lot in three months and you make a lot new resources that you can use later on. Overall, this internship was a great experience!

What I wish was different

I honestly wouldn't have changed anything.

Advice

If you show up and do you job, you will easily succeed and receive the bonus at the end of your internship. It really isn't a hard job.

Crop Scout Intern

May - August 2019 • Sterling, IL

What I liked

Being able to work with skilled certified crop advisors while gaining the hands on experience to learn and identify field problems. I was able to make connections with what I learned in class to what I was learning while an intern, which made me enjoy it that much more.

What I wish was different

Advice

My biggest piece of advice would be to ask questions. The agronomist I worked with was quick to answer and explain whatever I asked. I feel I learned so much more and was able to do my job that much better.
