David Cameron has worked in Agronomy since 1996, joining Farmanco in 2009. Based out of Moora and providing support to clients in the central midlands area of Western Australia, David is passionate about driving productivity growth for his client base. He is quick to adopt new technology and use patterns.
David works across all rainfall zones (low, medium and high) in the Dandaragan, Victoria Plains, Moora and Dalwallinu shires. He worked as an agronomist in Merredin for four years, then travelled internationally for a period, before settling in Moora in 2003. Working with farming systems and rotations where he can apply his crop selection, crop protection, soil science, plant nutrition and pasture knowledge, in recent years David has worked with rice in Cambodia, and puts his knowledge into practice with his own farming interests.
A Farmanco Principal, David also helps manage our research trials program.
