Is it time to take a soil test?
It is recommended that your agricultural fields have their soils sampled and tested once every 3-4 years. Soil testing is the basis for sound hayland and cropland management on your farm. For relatively little cost, you can achieve substantial results. Knowing your soils fertility can protect you from over or under fertilizing and saving money for your operation. If needed we have the tool for checkout in our office for field testing. Please call to reserve.
Check the links below to review soil sampling methods and plant-analysis sampling. A sample submission form and costs for analysis is also included in the links below:
