It\u2019s time to arrange soil sampling for next year\u2019s sugar beet crops<\/b><\/p>\n
The OMEX soil sampling team is rolling for another year and has started in-crop sampling for oilseed rape and will soon be gearing up for testing stubbles for sugar beet.<\/p>\n
Soil sampling\u00a0is an important cornerstone to ensure the soil nutrient reserves are maintained and managed for maximum crop returns and input efficiency and measures P, K and Mg reserves and provides a guide to pH.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Process<\/b><\/p>\n
25-30 cores are taken in a \u2018W\u2019 or grid pattern across the field to a depth of 15 cm and the whole sample is dried and milled to provide a fully representative sample of the field for testing.<\/p>\n
The automated sampling equipment ensures consistent sampling to 15 cm depth, regardless of ground conditions following the recent hot and dry conditions and the analysis is carried out by a PAAG accredited laboratory.<\/p>\n
Speak to your normal OMEX contact to get soil sampling booked; it\u2019s a free service for customers, all you need to do is arrange a map and the team will do the rest.<\/p>\n
