Soil Sampling

Soil sampling is the starting point for any good fertility program. For this reason, we only use accredited soil labs for analysis of samples. Samples can be analyzed for the basic phosphorous, potassium, pH, and Organic matter, or a complete micronutrient package can be added. We can assist with determining fertility programs based on soil test results.

Hoegy's Farm Supply Ltd. has a full menu of soil sampling services available depending on your needs. If one of the suggested services does not suit your needs, it can be adapted for your individual situation.
