The Tillage Edge

We rely on our soils more than any other resource to deliver crop performance and farm profitability year after year. Just like machinery, soils require regular attention and maintenance to perform at their best.

This week on the Tillage Edge podcast, Veronica Nyhan, Soil and Plant Specialist with Teagasc, and Ewen Johnstown, owner of South East Sampling Services, discuss the importance of soil sampling and how to do it correctly. 

They explain why taking an accurate soil sample is the foundation of effective nutrient management and how using soil test results to guide fertiliser and lime applications can deliver significant returns over the coming years.
