GPS Nutrient Mapping with Soil Sampling Data

 

GPS soil sampling results are used with field outlines to create GPS nutrient maps to show any differences in soil nutrient status within a field or farm. Some fields are relatively uniform whilst others may show big differences. Field outlines can be created independent of soil sampling by GPS mapping service on of Willington Crop Services GPS farming services.

 

Farmers can often predict whether fields will have no differences or big differences based on local knowledge. For example, fields that generally yield fairly evenly are less likely to show big differences, and likewise fields with uniform soil type are less likely to reveal big differences.

However fields regarded as fairly uniform can some times give variable soil nutrient analysis, and highlight untapped potential in parts of fields.

 - Phosphorus indices are shown as shades of blue. The darker the shade of blue indicating areas with less phosphorus nutrient in the soil and requiring more phosphorus fertiliser.

 - Potassium indices are shown as shades of green. The darker green indicates area of field with less potassium nutrient requiring more fertiliser.

 - Magnesium indices are shown as shades of yellow. The darker yellow indicates area of field with less magnesium nutrient in soil and requiring more magnesium fertilizer.

 

 

 

 

GPS Nutrient Maps

GPS data from soil sampling is used to create nutrient maps used to create fertiliser application maps for each field for GPS fertiliser maps to optimise fertiliser applications based on soil nutrient status, crop grown and rotation. See case study on GPS soil sampling.

"Soil sampling is only as good as the samples taken. Poor sampling procedures give poor data. Good soil sampling gives useful data."
