In-Season Plant Tissue Sampling (Poll Results)
2,378 FBN members spanning 7.58 million acres of farmland responded to today's poll on in-season plant tissue sampling!
We asked those members who have run tissue samples in the past if they made a corrective in-season decision based on the test results, 65% of these farmers said that they had!
What decisions have you made on your farm based on tissue sample results?
Are tissue tests worth the investment?

This is my second year using tissue samples, but first year making in-season applications based on results. Tissue results are telling me that reasonable K ppm isn’t enough to get in the plant and I think I need to raise the base saturation level. The numbers seem to bounce around enough that I’m not willing to draw too many conclusions, yet. I did see two low results on the tissue test increase following a foliar application of Brandt smart trio, and the soybeans recovered from the flexstar burn faster. Hopefully that translates to yield this fall.
