With today’s Fruit Grower Report, I’m Bob Larson. Hiring and training are two big challenges that farmers face when hiring workers, but the ag-tech startup Harvust, that’s Harvust with a U, has a great way to simplify the process with their bilingual communications system.

So good, in fact, that Harvust was recently named 2021 Entrepreneur of the Year by the American Farm Bureau Federation …

CLUBB … “It’s put us in this moment where we’re definitely getting a lot more interest and we’re starting to talk to farm bureau chapters around the country, outside of Washington, and trying to figure out basically how to bring Harvust from Washington state to the rest of the country.”

Co-Founder Riley Clubb says Harvust makes the process more efficient and cost-effective …

CLUBB … “Harvust can make the HR manager’s job easy, but also the safety consultants job easy, right, because safety consultants or any real HR advisors ,they want to tell you, here’s the form you need to use and here’s the video you need to use, and here’s when to send it. We just provide all of the technology to make all of that easier and more cost effective.”

Communications in agriculture, Clubb says has never been more important …

CLUBB … “Government rules and regulations for farms isn’t really showing any signs of slowing down and we are interested in basically providing the tools to make it just really easy and cost effective for farmers to keep up.”
