NutriScription is a customized software system that accepts soil and tissue sample analysis then compiles the data into a fertility prognosis with very specific nutritional recommendations. This unique online reporting program takes the analytical data from the testing labs and produces an agronomically correct recommendation based on the needs of the plant. These recommendations are reproduced in a user friendly report that provides a precise prescription of what is needed and when.

Getting the most from your “fertilizer dollar” is increasingly important. “Soil samples help ascertain what is available to the crop, but with the additional information obtained through tissue samples, one can define and react to nutritional deficiencies” says Brodie Blair, Plant Nutrient Manager at UAP Canada. Blair also states that “Nutrient availability can often times be hindered by soil pH; in fact, many important nutrients become less available to the crop as pH increases. A tissue sample taken during the growing season can help identify various deficiencies that can be addressed through foliar application, which tends to be more effective because there is less interaction with the soil”.

NutriScription is an excellent tool that makes real time assessment of the crop’s needs and allows the grower to optimize nutritional inputs. NutriScription is a service provided by UAP Canada and their authorized retailers and consultants.
