Have you booked your soil sampling yet?
Your Central Ontario FS Crop Specialist can provide you with the information that you need to prepare your next crop plan.
Just a few of the benefits to sampling your soil includes:
- Soil sampling establishes a good base for all cropping programs.
- Establish fertility and pH levels to determine fertilizer and lime requirements
- Proactively monitor soil test levels before deficiencies arise or to diagnose any crop production problems
- Indicate response to fertilizer and manage manure /biosolid applications
- Determine suitability for specific herbicides to be used
For best results, we recommend:
- Soil sampling every 3 years
- Samples should be representative of the field
- Fields with variability should be soil sampled by individual areas
While nitrogen in your soil can provide a positive economic return, it is a commonly deficient nutrient. Depending on your farming operation, we have many soil sampling services to offer. Contact your Central Ontario FS Crop Specialist - we'll take care of the rest.
