Soil nutrients and sampling (Repost)

It was during very dry conditions that a retired soil scientist sent a message out on social media telling farmers they need to soil sample to understand what the nutrient carryover will be for the next crop. Smaller yields likely mean the fertilizer applied in the spring was not used up and could be available for the next crop.

Ross McKenzie explains how the soil test could save farmers money at seeding.

In part two of Agripod...Ross will explain why it’s important to sample at the right time, give some guidelines for sampling and gives a list of labs that can provide that analysis.
