About Premium Ag Services

Premium Ag Services is a veteran-owned agricultural service company based in Newark, Illinois, serving Kendall County and the surrounding area.

We provide precision aerial application, grain transportation, bulk agricultural delivery, and drone sales. We're also an authorized EAVision dealer, selling the same aircraft we rely on commercially every day.

Whether we're spraying a field, hauling grain, delivering fertilizer, or helping a farmer decide if a drone makes sense for their operation, the goal is simple: use the right equipment, do the job right, and follow through.

What We Do

Aerial Application

Precision spraying and seeding backed by more than a decade of aerial application experience.

We apply fungicide, herbicide, foliar products, and cover crops by drone without putting tracks through the field. Drones allow us to work in wet ground, tall corn, irregular fields, and other places where ground equipment can be limited.

Our experience in aerial application started long before drones. The aircraft has changed. The job hasn't.

Grain Transportation

Field to farm. Farm to elevator. Anywhere in between.

PAS Transport provides agricultural trucking throughout the area, working with farmers, elevators, co-ops, and other agricultural businesses.

Bulk Delivery

We haul liquid and dry fertilizer, feed ingredients, seed, and other agricultural products.

To the farm, the field, or the facility.

Drone Sales

Premium Ag Services is an authorized EAVision dealer.

More importantly, we're an EAVision operator.

We sell the same aircraft we fly commercially, in real fields, during real application seasons. So when you ask whether a drone will actually pencil out for your farm or business, you're getting an answer based on experience instead of a brochure.

Who's Flying It

I'm Erik.

I left Big Rock at seventeen for the Army. I started in airborne infantry and moved into EOD after my first deployment to Afghanistan. I spent nine years in the Army with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, most of it doing work where getting it right the first time mattered.

Two things carried over.

Service. You follow through whether anyone's watching or not.

Attention to detail. When I went through EOD school, the motto was "Initial Success or Total Failure." There wasn't much room for almost right. Attention to detail wasn't a personality trait. It was the job.

The stakes are different now. The standard isn't.

After the Army, I went to flight school. My first commercial flying job was crop dusting, and it stuck. I've spent more than a decade in aerial application since then, along with time flying medical helicopters, before deciding to go out on my own.

In 2023, I moved back two miles from where I grew up and started Premium Ag Services with the original plan of operating helicopters.

Then the drones got good.

Not a little better every year. A lot better. Safer, more precise, and cheaper to operate than the helicopter I'd spent years training to fly.

So I bought drones.

That's not an easy thing for a pilot to say out loud, but I'd rather run the right tool than defend the one I'm attached to.

Working With Us

You deal with me.

I quote your acres. I fly them. And when you call with a question about a drone, you're talking to someone who actually uses one to make a living.

No sales pitch. No brochure answer.

Just tell me what you're trying to get done, and we'll figure out whether we can help.
