Yuba City Ag Services

Agnomy connects Yuba City and Sutter County farmers with ag service providers experienced in supporting the region’s most common crops, including:

• Yuba City is historically known as the “Prune Capital of the World.”
  Sutter County has long been one of California’s most important prune-producing regions, with orchards shaping land use and farm operations for decades.


• Orchards dominate much of the ag land around Yuba City.
  Almonds, walnuts, prunes, and peaches are among the most common permanent crops, requiring year-round orchard care, pruning, spraying, and harvest preparation.


• Permanent crops play a major role in land stability.
  Unlike annual row crops, the prevalence of orchards means ag land around Yuba City is often managed with long-term planning, repeat service cycles, and multi-year investment strategies.


• The Feather and Yuba Rivers support fertile soils.
  Proximity to these river systems contributes to productive ground well-suited for tree crops and orchard farming throughout the region.


• Sutter County agriculture is less fragmented than some urban-adjacent regions. Farms around Yuba City often operate in contiguous orchard blocks, making coordinated ag services and seasonal scheduling especially important.


• Labor and timing are critical during orchard seasons.
  Pruning, bloom treatments, pest control, and harvest windows drive demand for reliable ag services at specific points throughout the year.


• Many operations are multi-generation family farms.
  Long-established growers contribute to consistent land use patterns and a strong reliance on trusted, repeat service providers.
