Ontario anchors the Idaho-Eastern Oregon Treasure Valley, the nation's leading onion-growing region, where hundreds of growers move more than a billion pounds of storage onions each season. Malheur County is one of Oregon's top agricultural counties by value, producing onions, sugar beets, potatoes, corn, dry beans, and wheat on Snake River and Owyhee Project irrigated ground.
Row-crop farming at this intensity depends on custom application, irrigation, land preparation, and harvest and hauling support, with OSU's Malheur Experiment Station providing onion and row-crop research for the valley since 1942.
Agnomy connects Ontario-area growers with verified local service providers who understand Treasure Valley soils, irrigation districts, and storage-crop schedules, making it easier to find, book, and manage ag services across the region.
