the entire citrus belt. We provide complete caretaking for over
7,000 acres, as well as contract spraying of 12,000 acres an d contract
Temik application for 25,000 acres.
Because
of long residence in the heart of the citrus belt, we have become
very familiar with the geography of the area, soil types, climate
trends, etc. This type of experience allows us to offer top quality
service to any and every type of grove situation. We, as well as
all subcontractors, comply completely with all Department of Environmental
Protection, Superund Amendment & The Reauthorization Act of
1996 (S.A.R.A. title III), and the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration rules and regulations. This provides protection to
our clients, our employees, our environment, and our business. We
fee our life-long experience and our knowledge of the agriculturally
related legislation give us and and advantage especially in the
near future when these attributes well be even more essential for
proper grove management.
Our
founder and President received his formal education in citrus and
business. He has owned and operated the caretaking business for
over 25 years. His older son, Ben, a graduate of Florida Southern
College with a BS in Citrus Production, is the Production Manager
and Vice President. Benny's younger son, Joe, a graduate of Florida
