Soil Consulting for the Modern Farm
It’s about starting at soil level and tailoring an individual approach to achieve what you want.
Soil Balancing
You probably know that your soils need to be biologically active and nutrient balanced to be sustainable. Many are talking about it, but few know how to achieve it.
Do you get soil tests that show you probably need a lot of inputs, but you only get recommended two or three elements? You apply yearly doses of fertilizers but nothing really changes? Derek can help you achieve results that last.
