Soil health

Precision technology can provide valuable insight into the characteristics and overall conditions of our soils.

Services such as electrical conductivity scanning, GPS sampling and nutrient mapping, combined with precision farming techniques, can help you improve the long term health of your soils and your overall productivity as a result.

A detailed soil analysis can provide the insight needed to:

·         Target areas where nutrients or soil pH are impacting yield
·         Identify unproductive areas and amend cropping plans to suit
·         Reduce inputs and expenditure
·         Record and compare organic matter levels
·         Minimise the environmental impact of applications.

Precision technology and Soil Life

Alongside soil and plant health experts from Frontier and Kings Crops, the team at SOYL is supporting farmers to identify and implement long term soil management strategies that increase the resilience and productivity of their businesses.

Through Frontier’s Soil Life service, farmers can choose from three comprehensive soil analyses to suit their requirements. The tests can be combined with SOYL’s own precision services to produce detailed soil health reports, with the results helping farmers to identify different soil zones in different fields, and therefore implement different strategies to suit.
