Take Action NOW to Ensure Your Cotton Seed Is Tested

This article may be considered lengthy by some folks, but it will only cost you a little time. However, the costs of not reading it, and/or not putting it into practice, could be substantial!

Submit soil samples now to avoid peak-season fees

RALEIGH — Peak-season soil testing fees are set to take effect Dec. 1 through March 31, 2022, pending final approval by the N.C. Board of Agriculture at its Nov. 19 meeting. Submitting soil samples to the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Agronomic Services lab before that date will mean growers and homeowners can avoid the $4 per sample fee.
