50 Years of Trust Driven Service
Delivering dependable expertise, high-quality products, and unwavering support to growers since 1976
For more than 50 years, Marion Ag Service has been defined by a simple yet powerful commitment: Trust Driven Service.
That commitment began in 1967 when Robert Hockett branched out from full-time farming and joined with Allied Chemical to become one of the first liquid fertilizer distributors in the Willamette Valley.
In 1976, Hockett teamed up with four other local farmers to form Marion Ag Service — a business built on reliability, agricultural expertise, and a deep respect for growers. Two years later, Hockett bought out his partners and Marion Ag Service became the largest distributor of Ash Grove lime in Western Oregon.
Today, as Marion Ag Service celebrates our 50th anniversary, trust continues to be the foundation of every relationship we build and every solution we provide.
Rooted in the Willamette Valley. Trusted across the region.
Since our inception in 1967, Marion Ag Service has aimed to provide exceptional customer service and high-quality solutions to growers throughout the Willamette Valley. Over the years, we have expanded our roots far beyond our home in St. Paul, Oregon, and adapted our products to satisfy the needs of our ever-expanding customer base.
