Farmers Edge, a digital agriculture company operating in North America, Brazil, and India, has launched FE Soils, a do-it-yourself grid soil sampling app and nutrient management dashboard for farmers and agronomists across America.

Previously known as AgPhD Soils, FE Soils is now fully owned and operated by Farmers Edge, with soil testing services provided by its U.S. Laboratory located in Grimes, Iowa.

The FE Soils platform provides a seamless experience enabling users to plot grid points, manage soil samples, view soil tests, and access fertility prescriptions for their fields. FE Soils is free to use, with costs only associated with the physical soil testing.

Farmers Edge Laboratories performs its detailed Soil Insights Tests on all samples delivering results back in five to seven days. Tests include free fertility recommendations to help growers and agronomists extract valuable insights from the data. Results are accessible online, where users can access a suite of additional features to: download and share PDF reports of test results; auto-generate or do-it-yourself Rx Recommendations; export controller files for in-field applications; and access and store historical data.

New users can get started by creating an online account on FESoils.com and then downloading the mobile app, available on Google Play and Apple App stores, to geolocate and tag the respective field boundaries of their farm.
