A Summary of Western Ag's Fall 2008 Field Soil Testing Results.

Since 1998 Prairie farmers have had available an innovative decision support tool in the PRS TM Technology. Crop nutrition plans are generated that recognize the unique characteristics of the field’s soil nutrient supply rate and acknowledges the economic risk tolerance of the individual farmer. Though provincial soil test results are not useful to an individual, the monitoring of yearly data over time will give indications of “average” soil nutrient supply changes over time. Year to year differences can also provide the fertilizer industry signals of anticipated demand.
