In the role, Bodily will oversee commercial strategy and market expansion as Deerpoint moves into its next stage of growth, working to bring its managed crop nutrition platform and White Box™ technology to additional growers and geographies.

From an Idaho Farm to Agriculture Leadership Roles

He also spent several years in ag retail, selling fertilizer and crop protection products and providing crop recommendations directly to growers.

Under Bodily's commercial leadership, Deerpoint intends to expand into new high-value crop categories and geographies while maintaining its Central Valley roots, grower relationships, field-level service model, and verified approach to crop nutrition management. The move follows a broader pattern across U.S. agtech companies building out commercial teams to scale precision input technologies as growers look for ways to manage costs and improve yields.
