These advanced assessments help identify factors that may be limiting your yield potential. Since soil fertility is directly linked to crop performance, addressing nutrient deficiencies in your soil will help you cultivate healthier, more nutrient-dense crops, ultimately supporting the well-being of your livestock and boosting overall farm productivity.
We offer various types of advanced soil testing metrics in order to provide the best fit for your farming operation.
EarthOptics
EarthOpticsThe first of its kind, contactless soil sensor technology that accurately measures soil compaction levels up to several feet deep, while also measuring changes in soil texture, carbon content, conductivity and nutrient properties. As part of the EarthOptics platform, growers can choose to add Pattern Ag’s class leading genomics testing platform to enhance their soil testing to the fullest.

Grid soil sampling
Grid soil samplingGrid soil sampling is the most precise way to soil test. It produces the detailed information that you need to make important input decisions. Each soil sample represents 2.5 acres in grid format. Our grid soil sample package includes a map with sample sites, complete lab analysis from Midwest Laboratories for each sample, soil amendment suggestions, fertilizer recommendations and VRT prescription rates. All data will be available electronically as a PDF. Grid samples can be used for VRT applications by sample area or for grouping samples into site-specific areas.
Non-grid soil sampling
Non-grid soil samplingNon-grid soil samples can represent any size area and can be site-specific based on field boundaries, soil types or yield maps. Our non-grid soil sample package includes a map with sample locations, complete lab analysis from Midwest Laboratories, and soil amendment and fertilizer recommendations. All data will be available electronically as a PDF.
