Consulting
Crop Consulting Services can identify yield limiting issues before losses occur. The goal of our scouting service is to educate our clients on field conditions (pest pressure, soil conditions, visual signs of nutrient deficiencies) and provide information that allows for more informed decisions. Full Service Crop Consulting includes bi-weekly scouting during critical growth stages for each crop as well as all the benefits of our Basic Soil Testing Service.

Soil testing is the foundation of a successful fertility plan that optimizes crop production. Our Basic Soil Testing Services samples ½ of all fields on an annual, rotating basis. Annual meetings with growers are held to discuss soil test results and develop fertility and pesticide plans for the upcoming growing season. This service also includes recordkeeping for manure applications and Manure Management / Nutrient Management Plans and tracking of average P&K levels to identify trends in soil fertility.

Agricultural regulations affect all operations. Most regulations focus on protecting water quality from sediment and nutrient runoff. RTC views successful compliance with regulations as a continual conversation, not just focusing on what is necessary for compliance today, but also looking at what may be asked of the ag community in years to come. There is often an overlap in practices that have a positive impact on profitability and a positive impact on water quality. Rosetree Consulting is able to develop and maintain recordkeeping for the following Regulatory Plans:
Nutrient Management
