Practice Pit |
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.

Soil Judging
Janette Porter and I served as the scoring officials for the Section 11 FFA soil judging cotest held in Brown County today. I always enjoy the chance to interact with future agriculturalists. It was kind of a long drive, but it is also a good chance to look at soils in pits rather than a probe core. I am not sure how long this activity has been a part of FFA, but I attended my first contest in 1969. I have been involved in soil judging off and on ever since. I can't say how many contests. Some years there were many and some years one, and some years none.
