On the Ground: Agri-Waste Technology’s Role in North Carolina’s Agricultural Economy

Agriculture is North Carolina’s number one industry and the work happening on farms across the state has ripple effects far beyond our borders.

In this episode of On the Ground, a video series by Bclip Productions in partnership with Business North Carolina Magazine, we visit Agri-Waste Technology (AWT), a Cary-based professional engineering and technical services firm that has spent more than four decades helping farmers operate more efficiently, reduce emissions, and increase productivity.

From poultry and swine operations to family-owned farms and large-scale facilities, AWT serves as a trusted technical partner, providing expertise in engineering, nutrient management, soil science, and operational efficiency so farmers don’t have to be experts in everything themselves. As global population grows and food demand increases, the challenge becomes clear: how do producers do more with less?

This episode explores how applied science, practical consulting, and on-the-ground problem solving are shaping the future of agriculture in North Carolina—and why the work happening here matters well beyond state lines.

On the Ground highlights the people, companies, and ideas driving North Carolina’s economy—told where the work actually happens. Click here for the video.
