Varsity's detasselers are hand-picked. Most crews will be filled with experienced detasselers, but we will hire first-year people, especially if they come recommended by an experienced detasseler or by a Varsity supervisor. We're looking for good people: trustworthy, reliable, and good to work with.

How you are paid
We use a pay-by-the-row system to determine detasseler pay. This is the same system that the Sloup & Thorell Detasseling Team have used successfully here in Nebraska for over 20 years and we are now aligned with them.

Each row is worth a set dollar amount for a detasseler and the more rows you do that "pass," the more money you make. Of all the incentive systems for paying detasselers, paying by the row is at the top of the scale.

Why detassel?
School's out and you need cash-for summer fun, for spending money during the school year, for tuition. Many treat detasseling like an annual career and Varsity offers the sort of pay that experienced detasselers deserve.

The detasseling season may not be long, but we make the best use of the time. Get a couple of weeks of detasseling in and the go back to enjoying the summer.

Why detassel with Varsity?
For starters, experienced leaders and a pay system built for the highest rewards. Supervisors for Varsity receive annual training in crew management, field techniques, and field safety.

At the heart of the Varsity incentive system is the belief that efficient work deserves good pay-and for that matter, more efficient work deserves better pay.
