Greetings,
I recently attended Neal Kinseys Advanced Soil Fertility workshop in PA
and would like to pass on a few things that would be of interest to some in
the group. Neal is a world wide soil consultant who works with all kinds of
crops. Grapes,berries,corn, timber,pasture,beans,tomatoes.......
He works with very large berry growers in California. He says when he
keeps the boron levels in the soil at 1.5ppm and the copper at 12-15ppm rust
is no longer a problem. This is of course using his labs results,however,
most labs are fairly consistent with the trace elements. This cant be said
for major elements. There is much variation between different labs.
