Questions from Jackson County landowners

Does Agri-Land Aviation apply products in Jackson County?

Yes.  Jackson County is one of the Texas counties we currently serve.  Call (256) 590-3869 and give us the location.

Can a plane help when the ground is too wet to get a rig across?

Wet ground is one of the main reasons landowners look at aerial application, since the plane never touches the field.  Call (256) 590-3869 and tell us how soft the field is.

Is it worth asking if my tract is beyond the Jackson County line?

It is.  Counties are added as landowners ask, so call and tell us about your tract.

Farmland and bay shore around Edna

Jackson County sits on the Coastal Prairies along U.S. Highway 59, with Edna as its seat and largest town.  It was one of the original counties of Texas, formed in 1836, and it borders both Lavaca Bay and Carancahua Bay.  Between 41 and 50 percent of the land is classed as prime farmland, and average rainfall runs about 40 inches a year.[1]

Fields near the bays and creeks can stay soft after a heavy rain.  Aerial application does not depend on dry ground, so it can help a landowner keep to a schedule.
