Stockton · French Camp · San Joaquin County
Copper Ag is a weed abatement, land maintenance and tractor service contractor based in French Camp, near Stockton. We disk, mow, spray and cut fire breaks so landowners stay clean and in compliance with county and city ordinances, and we do custom farm work for growers across San Joaquin County and the Central Valley.
What we do
Copper Ag abates weed growth by disking the soil, mowing down growth or applying herbicide. That helps prevent future weeds and leaves you a clean plot of land. For growers, we also handle ground prep and other custom farm work.
Disking turns the soil over and works standing weeds and dry grass back into the ground, leaving a clean, bare plot.
It is the go-to method for weed abatement on vacant lots, open parcels and field edges, and for cutting fire breaks. We disk properties across Stockton, French Camp and San Joaquin County.
Mowing cuts growth close to the ground without disturbing the soil.
It is a good fit for slopes and embankments, roadsides, areas close to buildings and fences, and orchards, using tractor mowers and skid-steer mowing attachments.
Agricultural and industrial herbicide applications kill existing weed growth, and pre-emergent herbicide keeps it from coming back.
Spraying the perimeter of a property keeps fence lines, sidewalks and utilities clear and keeps roadsides clean. Copper Ag holds a California Department of Pesticide Regulation pest control business license.
We cut fire breaks and clear defensible space by disking or mowing dry grass and weeds around property lines and structures.
We also do whole-property clean up, so a parcel is ready before city or county weed abatement deadlines.
Beyond weed abatement, Copper Ag does custom farm work for growers: ground prep and disking on hundreds of acres, and marking and berming with precision GPS.
We put in beds for new tomato and row-crop fields, mow orchards and spray alfalfa.
We also handle light grading, material spreading and general tractor services.
If a property needs tractor work that is not listed here, call and describe the job.
* Most properties should have their perimeter sprayed to keep fence lines, sidewalks and utilities clear of weed growth.

Mowing cuts growth close to the ground without disturbing soil, which suits slopes, roadsides, orchards and areas near structures. Herbicide, including pre-emergent, kills growth and keeps it from coming back, which suits fence lines, rights-of-way, retention ponds and property perimeters. Many properties use a combination.
