In this video, agricultural engineer Lucas Drum, from IDR-Paraná, shows the correct sequence for collecting soil samples from your property and sending them for analysis. The analyses are very important for deciding what type of fertilization should be done, not to mention that they are one of the prerequisites for contracting rural credit. Lucas also gives a practical example of dividing an area for a milk producer. Dividing the area into plots, performing the collection, cleaning the container, and using equipment and tools are among the tips from our server. As we know, the cost of limestone, correctives, and fertilizers represents a significant portion of the production cost. Therefore, the correct collection of soil samples is the most important part of a fertilization program, as it is essential for determining the needs for limestone and fertilizers. A poorly prepared collection can lead to loss of money or reduced productivity. Filming and editing: Stela Desto Location: Coopavel Training Center - Show Rural Area
