Family is the heart of farming and has been for generations. Lindsay LaMora spent much of her early years following along with her father, Jeff Alicandro, a crop consultant with a legendary reputation in New York.

Following Jeff’s passing, Linsday decided to follow in his giant footsteps, and is now working in a similar capacity with growers, through her work at Ag BioTech.

Lindsay says getting the best results for growers requires being a lifelong learner.

“It is important to start learning and never stop learning,” she said. “Especially when it comes to fertility. My dad definitely had that mindset from the beginning.”

Apples cover well over 20,000 acres in Wayne County, making it the third largest for this crop in the U.S.

Lindsay says she’s seen great success with advanced nutrition from Redox and Ag BioTech. She says biostimulants provide substantial benefits to growers, including helping orchards thrive through cold spells and other abiotic stress events.
