Farm Compliance Services (FCS)
FCS provides advanced agronomic consulting support to farms. For over fifteen years, our firm has focused on helping our clients succeed in reaching their own production goals, while meeting environmental protection requirements and improving overall farm efficiency. We work with our clients to track on-farm practices, at the farmstead and field level, and help them utilize their farm data in a variety of ways. Sometimes this is for permit and compliance reporting, but many times farm data can help drive farm investment for the future.
We spend time on farms, with farmers, gathering farm data, analyzing it, and providing feedback and insights. Using the FCS approach to long-term data management, we are better prepared to help our clients obtain permits and participate in public and private incentive grant opportunities.
FCS also serves as expert agronomic consultants for a wide range of clients – from award winning cheese makers to some of America’s largest dairy producers – we help in their success. We consult with processors and milk purchasers on how today’s U.S dairy (our clients) are positively working toward reducing Greenhouse gas emissions and supply chain efficiencies. FCS agronomists assist clients as part of a collaborative team approach that is dedicated to helping the farm raise healthy herds and producing excellent milk, while maintaining environmental stewardship goals.
This means that our insights must demonstrate more than obvious summaries and pretty charts. We must ask questions, pursue conditional variables, and consider both the micro- and macro-elements at play in each given scenario. FCS generates IP through a combination of the “FCS Process” (the specific ways that we deliver our services) and “FCS Insights” (custom data, reports, and breakthroughs).
Geographically, we primarily work with farms in three states: Michigan, New York, and Vermont. That said, we have national and international partnerships and work with farms in other U.S. states. FCS continues to grow along with our client’s and we strive to provide unique, high-level, farm-specific consulting to help our clients meet the challenges of today’s marketplace.
