Subject: Tissue tests?



Chebanse, IL.....

I read a lot about tissue tests here on NNAT. I'll guess we're not very good farmers right around here, I don't really know any neighbors that utilize tissue testing. We don't. Soil testing...yes! Let me know if you or your area uses tissue tests as a common practice.

So, re. tissue tests. Are the results skewed by nutrient uptake factors? Roots-disease-insects-pesticides?

I assume tt practitioners test both corn & beans. That shows the nutrients lacking? Or oversupplied?

Will different varieties exhibit different results?

Will different lot #s exhibit different results?

Will climatic conditions skew results?

If your tested crop is corn & next yrs crop is beans, how do you utlize results for next yrs planning?

Are these fair questions?
