How SoilOptix® Works
How does SoilOptix® take field mapping to the next level?
“SoilOptix® provides the highest degree of resolution and the most detail of any soil test methods available. As a retailer and a farmer, the detailed information that SoilOptix® provides along with the collection of accurate yield maps allows me to precisely recommend and apply the correct amount of crop inputs based on yield goals, crop removal rates and soil fertility build goals for my customers and our farm.”
