Fall Soil Sampling: The Foundation for Next Season

Red Cedar Ag • July 23, 2026

Every successful crop starts with a plan, and every good plan starts with reliable data.



Fall soil sampling helps take the guesswork out of fertility decisions by showing what’s available, what’s lacking, and where opportunities exist for next season. The better your information, the better your decisions.


At Red Cedar Agronomy, we believe soil sampling should be more than just a nutrient test. That’s why we pair traditional soil analysis with tools like TruBio, TruNutrient, and EarthOptics to give growers a more complete picture of their acres.

Looking Beyond Nutrient Levels


While nutrient recommendations remain a critical part of soil sampling, today’s technology allows us to look deeper into field variability and soil function.


Using EarthOptics data, growers can gain additional insight into soil characteristics and variability across the field. Combined with TruBio biological testing and TruNutrient analysis, we can create a more complete picture of the factors influencing your crop performance.


Our recommendation remains simple:

  • TruBio on 100% of acres
  • TruNutrient on a 2-4 year rotation
  • EarthOptics data to enhance field-level insights


Together, these tools help build stronger fertility plans and more informed management decisions.



Getting Ready for Fall 2026


As demand for soil sampling continues to grow, Red Cedar Ag is expanding our capabilities with additional trucks, trailers, and sampling personnel. This increased capacity allows us to cover more acres efficiently while continuing to deliver timely results.


Don’t wait – The earlier you test, the better! 


Reach out today to reserve your fall soil sampling acres and build a stronger foundation for next season.
