The foundation of high yielding crops is the creation of a comprehensive soil fertility plan. Elite RX is Keystone Cooperative’s comprehensive and customizable crop nutrient sampling and recommendation program designed to optimize your soil's potential for maximum results.
With Elite RX, each soil sample is collected with pinpoint accuracy. Using high-precision GPS, we locate and mark sample points, ensuring consistency across soil types and conditions. Our automated sampling machines take each soil core with the same repeatable process, so you receive reliable, data-driven insights every time.
Samples are then sent to one of our two soil laboratory partners. Each laboratory has an exceptional track record and processes in place to create repeatable and accurate analysis. Soil laboratory analysis and subfield yield data are then used to write variable rate fertility recommendations. The foundation of our fertilizer recommendations is backed by university research to help our customers maximize their fertilizer investment.
