agriculturist
Explanation:
Or agriculturalist.

Hard to say without seeing it in a sentence. It could be that the company needs an agricultural specialist for land/soil assessment. However, it could also refer to the farmer or agricultural producer.

Agriculturist could be a good option if you don't have any more context.

agri·cul·tur·ist (ag′ri kul′c̸hər ist)
noun
1.an agricultural expert
2.a farmer

No Brasil, é comum denominar de agropecuarista aquele que se dedica a produção de plantas e a criação de animais.
