Subject: RE: Soil Sampling - Grid vs. Zone?


With our variable soils, I much prefer by soil type or yield map. I also liked what Greywolf said about matching the spreader width, I don't believe many people even think about that. A grid is worthless if it can't be spread properly. Then you need a high speed receiver and controller to keep up with the constantly changing rate. Plus it all depends on how it is sampled. Many people take a few cores next to their ATV and call that a 5 acre grid and that's not the way to do it.
