Nitrogen Management
Method
12 inch soil sample taken right ahead of side-dressing. Done on a grid basis (typically 4.4 or 10)
Core Collection
Cores are collected methodically on every sample to obtain consistency across the rows
Minimize Rain Events
Sampled about 5 days before expected side-dress application to minimize rain events between sampling and application time
End of Season
Samples are collected after corn is blacklayer. Test results indicate how much nitrogen was available to the plant
RTK Boundary Mapping
We deliver RTK-level accuracy in the mapping of field boundaries and features. By using John Deere RTK Mobile cellular signal, we ensure high-accuracy GNSS positioning for +/- 1 inch repeatability year after year.
This precision takes on special significance for fields adorned with intricate waterways, terraces, and other internal features that demand meticulous mapping. Instantaneous uploading of fields to the My JohnDeere System streamlines accessibility and allows effortless sharing with your John Deere equipment. Alternatively, shapefiles can be exported for seamless integration into any GPS system.

A: Soil sampling can tell you a lot about what is happening in the field. It can answer questions on yield impact and how much fertilizer do you actually need to put down and where. Depending on the level of sampling being completed you can see what your macronutrients, micronutrients and even water holding capacity, just to name a few.
Kansas’ soils can vary widely within a single field. Consider the topography, drainage patterns, and historical land use when determining sampling locations.
Different crops may have varying root depths, so it’s essential to sample at the appropriate depth. For row crops like corn and soybeans, sampling depth is typically 6-12 inches.
The timing of soil sampling can affect nutrient levels. Ideally, samples should be taken in the fall after harvest or in the spring before planting to reflect the nutrient status before the growing season.
Align soil testing with nutrient management plans. Consider the specific nutrient requirements of the crops to be planted and adjust fertilizer recommendations accordingly.
Soil pH is critical for nutrient availability. Test and address pH levels, as they can influence nutrient uptake by plants.
Kansas’ soils vary in organic matter content. Consider this when interpreting soil test results, as organic matter influences nutrient retention and availability.
Kansas has a significant focus on nitrogen management due to its impact on water quality. Assess nitrate levels in the soil and implement best management practices to minimize nutrient runoff.
A: Soil Test Reports are sent in CSV, Excel and PDF format.
A: No, not for fertility sampling. All you need to get started is a rough boundary of the field (we can provide) to be sampled.
A: Nutrient recommendations need to be requested when ordering soil sampling. If not, they can be added on after the field is sampled. The lab will need previous crop, Intended crop and yield goal.
