Pierre takes the results from pasture and feed testing and from these he tweaks animal diets, altering each recommendation as required. Further information on this can be found under Feed Analysis.

Robyn takes the results from soil and/or leaf testing and from these results she writes up an in-depth report describing what is happening both in the soil and the plant and from these results, she puts together a recommendation for both solid and high quality liquid fertilisers to balance the base saturation of the soil as well as to improve the nutrient balance in the plant, which depending on the results may be general products, or special blends to meet the nutrient requirements of the pasture or crop and may also include beneficial soil or foliar microbes.

Also taken into the equations are special needs of soils, soils that have a low CEC (ability to hold nutrient), have excesses of some elements, have very little topsoil etc. These may require the addition of 'smart fertilisers' such as Zeolite and Biochar.  

It is this innate ability to draw from a number of sources, attention to detail and care taken when reporting and consulting, taking care to prescribe according to plant and soil requirement that give Holistic Farm Solutions Ltd an edge over many of their competitors.
