Rolla, ND | One other thing. If you see the people taking the soil tests or the equipment doing the tests spending time at the fertilzer plant, I wouldn't trust them. Just a little powder is all it takes to mess them up. That's one of the risks you take using a guy with a fertilizer plant for soil testing. Many do okay, but it's always a concern.
For some reason, people always think the fertilizer dealer will do samples that sell more fertilizer. From what I've seen it's the opposite. If they want to use the samples to sell fertilizer, they do that in the interpretation of the results. Everything they do wrong here tends to make their samples test higher than they should. Operator doesn't know what he's doing so he pulls cores from wrong places, contamination, equipment that doesn't work, all tend to give higher tests results.
