Soil Sampling/Soil Information System (SIS)

Key Features

  • Assess detailed soil properties for each field such as soil texture, compaction, root zone depth, moisture retention and availability, and soil fertility
  • View soil analysis for the top 48 inches (122 cm) of the field’s surface in 3D
  • Download soil maps into your farm management software application, including Farm Works Software® solutions or other third-party systems
  • Create variable rate application maps from the soil information to help maximize plant growth

SIS offers precise 3D soil models for dozens of soil physical and chemical characteristics including:

 

  • Root zone depth
  • Soil texture (clay, sand, coarse fragment content)
  • Moisture holding capacity
  • Compaction characteristics
  • Macro and micro-nutrient levels
  • Salt and toxicity concentrations
