What's in the soil can greatly affect how your crops yield. With Western Ag's PRS™-probe and PRS™-probe Nutrient Forecaster software, Western Ag Labs can generate a crop nutrition plan that will maximize your yield and minimize inputs.
Western Ag Labs wants to build a crop nutrition plan that optimizes your farm. Using the technologically advanced Plant Root Simulator (PRS)™-Probe and the PRS™ Nutrient Forecaster software, Western Ag Labs' Field Service Reps can increase profits and minimize inputs for all farmers.
The PRS™ Nutrient Forecaster is a computer software program that utilizes PRS™ data by integrating the climate and soil conditions of that particular field to determine potential yields. As nutrient, climate, and soil conditions are adjusted with the Forecaster, producers can choose to increase or decrease the applied fertilizer to achieve the maximum economic yield.
Let our Field Service Reps create a crop nutrition plan that will maximize profits while minimizing inputs. Contact your FSR today!
The PRS™-probe uses ion resin exchange technology to adsorb all nutrient ions simultaneously from your soil sample in the same way a plant root would. The PRS™ probe measures the actual quantity of bioavailable nutrients (i.e., biologically meaningful) in soil as compared to an index of available nutrients. Conventional soil testing methods use chemicals to extract nutrients from the soil, which is an indirect estimate or index of the amount that may be plant available. In addition, the PRS™-probe works equally well in all soil types, so it is well suited to look for a standard measure of soil nutrient bioavailability in research networks spread across vast geographical areas.
