START WITH THE SOIL
Whether you farm 5000 acres or a small plot, healthy soil starts with understanding what's in it
UNDERSTANDING YOUR SOIL CAN TRANSFORM THE WAY YOU GROW
Who are Agri Soil?
We started Agri Soil in 2023, having run our family farming business in the Nene Valley for 3 generations.
After spending years trying to improve yield farming conventionally, we started looking at ways to work with nature to maximise productivity. For us, that meant starting with the soil.
Now, we help farmers, market gardeners, allotment holders and home growers understand and work with their soil, to help protect this valuable resource for generations to come
Key services we offer
Basic Soil Testing
Organic Matter Testing
Trace element Testing
The best place to start. Looking at pH and levels of key nutrients can help identify major deficiencies in the soil in a cost-effective way.
Also, you have to do it. Since 2018 it has been a legal requirement to test all arable soils for basic nutrients every 5 years.
