Dear Strip-till farmer,
Most strip-tillers understand the importance of soil testing, as they typically serve as the baseline for fertilizer and lime purchases and application. Thanks to variable-rate technology, growers can even use soil test reports to draw up exactly where they’re going to apply a certain rate of fertilizer or lime.
But if someone were to hand you a soil test report, would you be able to read the information and understand what it means? Unlock the hidden secrets of accurately deciphering your soil reports.
Included in this FREE, 14-page special edition eGuide, readers will have the exciting opportunity to go step-by-step through fluently interpreting a soil test to make accurate decisions on your cropping operation.
