Soil Consulting and Crop Consulting in Illinois. You may call it soil testing, soil sampling, or soil health management, but it is more than that. These are my daily or weekly travels in soil and crop consulting and my observations in the agricultural world.

Time for Moisture Conservation
We have gotten very little rain in the past several weeks. Soils are thawed and ready for rain now. It might be time to think about moisture conservation. We have enough moisture in the soil right now to germinate our crops and get them out of the ground, but excessive tillage could change that. Consider one pass if possible or no-till. Keep as much residue on the surface as possible to help with infiltration and moisture conservation.
