About Dawson Agriculture
Local knowledge. Trusted support. Proven results.
Dawson Agriculture is a family-owned agricultural consultancy based in Southern Queensland. Led by Jeremy Dawson, we’ve spent more than 25 years walking paddocks, digging soil, and helping local farmers make smarter decisions for their land and businesses.
We provide practical, data-backed agronomy services, mobile soil testing, farm management support, and equipment hire, working alongside broadacre and mixed-enterprise producers across Southern Queensland and Northern New South Wales.
Our approach is grounded in real-world experience, long-term client relationships, and a genuine commitment to the success of regional agriculture.
Meet the Team
Jeremy Dawson
Senior Agronomist & Founder, Dawson Agriculture
Jeremy is the founder of Dawson Agriculture and brings over 25 years of agronomic experience across Southern Queensland and Northern NSW. Based near Dalby, he works with growers to improve productivity across dryland and irrigated cropping systems, from broadacre cereals to small crops like ginger and pecans.
Before launching Dawson Agriculture, Jeremy was Senior Agronomist and Director at MCA Agronomy in Goondiwindi, where he supported large-scale grain operations and worked closely with CRT branches across SE QLD on inputs and crop planning.
Jeremy specialises in:
- Soil testing and fertiliser planning
- Crop rotation and chemical strategies
- Planting and harvest schedules
- Pasture and oilseed systems
He also manages Dawson Agriculture’s machinery hire and transport services, supporting growers with tools like the Soil Doctor mobile testing trailer, Kelly Chain hire, and Grizzly renovators.
Jeremy has contributed to national projects like the GRDC National Paddock Survey, and is known for combining on-ground practicality with forward-thinking advice that delivers results across every phase of the season.
Meet the Team
Simon Haire
Agronomist, Dawson Agriculture
Simon is a key part of the Dawson Agriculture team, based in Dalby and servicing growers across the Western Downs, South Burnett, and surrounding regions. With a background spanning broadacre and irrigated systems, Simon brings practical know-how and a collaborative mindset to every paddock visit.
Originally from Wee Waa, Simon grew up around cotton, working in the family’s contract farming business focused on mulching, furrowing, and Big N application. He holds a Bachelor of Business (Agribusiness) and has built his career through diverse roles across QLD and NSW.
His experience includes:
5 years in Grower Services in the sugar industry across Townsville and Proserpine
2 years in research agronomy
2 years working on a corporate cotton and cropping farm near Moree, implementing large-scale programs with independent agronomist
Simon has worked with a range of crops including wheat, barley, chickpeas, faba beans, canola, and cotton, and has led the setup of Swarmbot robotic Weedit sprayers, combining agtech with practical outcomes.
Known for his down-to-earth approach and interest in emerging technologies, Simon is passionate about working closely with growers to deliver independent, regionally tailored agronomic advice that drives results.
We believe good advice starts with accurate data — which is why we’ve invested in our own mobile soil testing unit, the Soil Doctor, to give our clients fast, local results when they need them most.
Every farm is different. We don’t do one-size-fits-all agronomy. We work closely with each client to develop custom strategies that suit their crops, climate, equipment, and business goals.
No fluff. No buzzwords. Just honest, proven recommendations backed by years in the paddock.
