About this award
Farmers Fertilizer Co has been awarded a $143,650 firm fixed-price purchase order by the USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Plains Area to provide aerial pesticide and fungicide application services at the Roman L. Hruska U.S. Meat Animal Research Center in Clay Center, Nebraska. The contract, which runs from April 1, 2025 through November 30, 2025, involves aerial application of various chemicals including 2,4-D, Tordon, Headline AMP, Dimilin 2L, Butyrac 200, and Warrior II across approximately 6,300 acres of pasture and crop ground. This is a total small business set-aside contract awarded under FAR Part 13 commercial item procedures following a Request for Quote evaluation using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, with pricing based on actual acres treated and specific chemical application requirements.
Farmers Fertilizer Co, a small agricultural cooperative headquartered in Smiths Grove, Kentucky, is well-positioned to execute this work given its extensive history providing agricultural chemicals and related services to federal agencies. The company holds multiple significant federal contracts with USDA, including a $4 million Blanket Purchase Agreement for Spotted Lanternfly treatment chemicals and specialized IDCs for insecticide products. The work will support crop production for research animal feed at the ARS facility, with the contractor required to provide detailed monthly spray logs documenting acres treated, timing, weather conditions, and chemical usage amounts, with no billing permitted for unsuccessfully treated areas.
