I was on a farm growing streamxpert up, so the love of nature has always been there. This is why there is such a huge attraction to sports such as cycling, running and triathlon is. The appeal, which I have my "real" job considered, is an agricultural chemical sales representative. In the old days, people referred to us as "gifsmouse"! We work with nature and our office is outside. streamxpert We have in most cases a lot of work alone - on your own in the country. I do my work and my exercise program combines fun my last customer of the day camps with my bike to visit. So I get the hours in the saddle and I get the "real" work done!
The top photo is a common streamxpert sight in our profession. Nature at its finest. This photo is near Riebeek West took on last week's rain just after the last shower of the day. I did this country with my mountain bike when I drove through the beautiful phenomenon to see!
What is my job, except for the scenic view and take pictures of things? We visit our clients and provide consultation to them for pests. My job is to ensure that the producer the best possible yield (quantity and quality) supply. We look at fungi, insects and weeds that pose a threat to the crop and also gives recommendations for foliar feeding the tumor "boost". All crops we serve (grains, grapes, fruits and vegetables) on a regular basis, and recommendations are given to producers to spray. We are currently in the middle of the grain season in the Western Cape. Crops are now managed streamxpert wheat, oats, triticale, canola, lupins and medics. Food for mankind is of paramount importance, as the arable land is no longer, but the population of the earth is. We have the largest possible harvest collection on the ground at our disposal.
Countries streamxpert with quad drove to look for possible problems. Each country is dealt with individually and get his recommendation for possible threats. There is a fine line between a pest / problem that can cause economic damage versus one that is only cosmetic.
The above picture is a medic land for ryegrass treated. Ryegrass is the biggest weed problem on the stage in the Western Cape. It is a very aggressive disease streamxpert that grains can "kill growth". The above is the brown grasses that are starting to die and the green is the medics continue to grow. Castle streamxpert Mountain is in the background.
Most of my sponsors and Hildegarde are suppliers of Nexus, in other words, we buy products from them we turn to the producer sells his problem to address. The various sponsors deal with the following:
AgChem - foliar, Oro Agri - Wetting agents with mixtures, Cosmocel - foliar (Specialized fertilizer), Insect Science - traps and mating disruption, Dow AgroScience - Fungus, Insect and Weed drugs and Sun Lab - foliar sprays. These organizations spend thousands of dollars annually in research and development streamxpert for better and innovative solutions for our agents as to the table.
We are indeed fortunate to live in such a beautiful setting and with such good support us to perform daily tasks. We are three partners in the business (Jaco, Stephan Venter and Eric Venter). Our two admin ladies (Anja West Council and Anke Steyn) is the backup of the business to ensure that there is always inventory and invoices the correct final destination! This lot is my sounding board daily about my own experiences and hear help with advice and wisdom. Thank you for everything!
What training is concerned - I drive on average about 9 hours per week and Hildegarde bike is fully on various programs. This winter we did so far not too much hampered - we eat more!
