Rainy season shifts soil nitrogen reserves in Manitoba fields
Heavy rains across Manitoba have likely leached residual nitrogen deeper into soil, possibly beyond next year’s crops. Experts urge deep sampling to 0 centimetres to assess true fertilizer needs, as shallow tests miss stable nitrogen and can inflate costs. Sulphur also requires deep sampling for accurate analysis and better guidance at Manitoba Agriculture offices and fertilizer dealers.
