What You Need to Know from People You Know.
Step into the field with the agronomists who are walking it every day.
Hosted by Nicholas Giesseman and Nick Thompson, Crop Walk by Innovative Ag Services (IAS) delivers timely, boots-on-the-ground insights from across our four service regions. Each week, our agronomy team shares what they’re seeing, hearing, and recommending right now—from crop conditions and pest pressure to nutrient management and weather impacts.
Featuring IAS agronomists from across our territory, this weekly update brings local perspective, real-world experience, and practical recommendations you can use immediately.
Because when it comes to your operation, the best insights come from people who know your ground—and know you.
