Built for landowners. Trusted by their advisors.

FDI was founded to fix a quiet problem: the value already sitting in agricultural soil rarely shows up on a balance sheet, a tax return, or a loan file. We started with agronomists who knew soil, paired them with people who understood how the IRS treats it, and built a documentation practice around what the law actually allows.

Today we work with farmers, landowners, CPAs, lenders, brokers, and estate attorneys across the country. Our job is to deliver clear, defensible reporting that helps the right professionals — your professionals — do their work with confidence.

The people behind every report.

FDI is a small, deliberate team. When you call, you reach a person who knows your file. When your CPA has a follow-up question, an agronomist or analyst answers it. That's the model, and it's why our reports hold up under scrutiny.

Our team consists of agronomists, accountants, and experts in the field of fertility analysis.
