We can test for Lime and P & K.  Samples are either taken on the field and analysed by our agronomist (lime) or sent to the laboratory for specialised analysis(P & K), where upon detailed  maps can be passed to the farmer.

Lime and P & K Testing

Soil testing is the most effective way of making sure that you have a balance of pH within the soil.  There are a couple of ways that this can be accomplished:

  • BDH Box - this method involves taking soil samples across the field and combining it with chemical solutions.  This gives us a colour coded result to show what the pH level of the soil is.  This is then marked on a map of the field to show where lime needs to be applied.

                                       

From these results we can organise the supply and spreading of lime with low ground pressure spreaders.

  • GPS Mapping - please see GPS Mapping on the tool bar
