Soil Sampling Design
Understanding soils composition, structure, and nutrient content is crucial for making informed farming decisions. Our Soil Sampling Design service provides a systematic approach to collecting and analyzing soil samples, ensuring accurate and representative results.
Key Features:
-
Strategic Sampling: We don't just take random samples. Our team draws on public and on farm data layers to statistically identify key zones for sampling.
-
Depth Profiling: Soil properties can vary significantly with depth. Our sampling design includes multiple depth intervals to provide a 3D view of the soil's profiles.
-
State-of-the-Art Laboratory Analysis: Once collected, samples are processed in our advanced soil laboratory. Here, they undergo a suite of analyses to determine their physical and chemical properties.
-
Data Interpretation: Data alone isn't enough. Our team of experts interprets the results, translating complex scientific data into actionable insights for your farm.
Benefits for Farmers:
-
Informed Decision Making: Understand the health and composition of your soil, along with potential input responses, to allow for more precise fertilizer and water management.
-
Maximised Yields: By tailoring your farming practices based on accurate soil data, you can optimise plant growth and increase yields.
-
Cost Savings: Combine the soil information with yield and trial results to reduce wastage and optimise inputs by knowing exactly what your soil needs, when it needs it, and the economic implications of your decisions.
