Agronomics
Identifying the yield-limiting nutrients and soil properties improves management strategies and promotes yield growth. Through soil sampling data, we provide the farmer with the information they need to fertilize the areas of the field where they need it most. Additionally, we provide data to better understand how everything works together in the soil. Additionally, we have created CPUTM to blah blah blah.
Economics
Macro and Micronutrient data maps provide the knowledge and information needed to accurately place inputs in order to maximize return on investment. If you don’t know what’s in your soil, you don’t know how to accurately and comprehensively improve it.
Environmental
Our HD nutrient indexes measure how well certain areas in the field will respond to fertilizer inputs, ensuring inputs are placed in accordance with the four Rs and reducing nutrient runoff. This allows growers to improve their sustainability footprint while still benefiting their farm.
What makes it unique?
Our patented soil sampler replaces traditional hand probes, improving consistency, accuracy, and eliminating human error. The sampler lowers an open-chamber knife into the soil every 12 to 15 seconds, cutting a 15-foot furrow and collecting soil at a uniform seven-inch depth. These locations are marked using existing GPS technology, which is used to develop detailed application maps. Our sampler accommodates different grid sizes, from 1/4 acre to 2 acres, allowing us to match growers’ needs and goals.
Samples are processed and analyzed by our ALP-certified in-house laboratory to maintain the quality and integrity of the soil, ensuring results are accurate.
Our team was honored to show Brian's Farming Videos our patented, soil sampling process. Check out this video to watch it in action. If you’re interested in learning more, contact us and we’ll discuss our unbiased agronomy approach.

It pays to take more!
High-density (HD) grid soil samples (1/4, 1/3, and 1/2 acre) provide the most accurate soil test values and combat spatial instability most efficiently.
More sample points per acre increase confidence in the placement of nutrient fertilizer and lime applications.
