Map Your Farm
We utilize SoilOptix® to provide farmers with
high resolution topsoil mapping.
To learn how you can benefit from high resolution
topsoil mapping, just call (204) 857-8580.
Map & Measure Nutrient Properties
eg. pH, Organic Matter, P, K, Ca, Mg, Na, NO3, EC
Map & Measure Soil Textures
eg, Clay %, Sand %
Build Complex Property Models
eg. Plant Available Water, Water Filtration Rate

Our Programs
At Crop Care, we work on a varitety of crops and cropping systems. We also assist growers in all crops in setting up, monitoring, harvesting and evaluating field scale research plots to test out new ideas and products to keep moving our production forward.
Grain & Oilseed Crops
WHEAT, CANOLA, BARLEY etc. This program includes soil and tissue tests, a field scout about every 10 to 14 days or as required throughout the growing season.
NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM. Composite soil testing with tissue sampling and record keeping. Analysis is provided by lab.
COMPLETE CROP MANAGEMENT. This program includes the Nutrient Management Program plus 7 days to 2 week field scouts throughout the season. Fields are scouted from pre-planting until harvest looking at weeds, insects, diseases, nutrients, general crop and soil health and other crop production issues.
WEED & DISEASE MANAGEMENT. In crop weed, disease and insect scouting and recommendations provided.
Potatoes
NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Includes a soil test, minimum of 4 petiole tests and record keeping. Analysis provided by lab. A handheld nitrate meter grants instant results for quick fertigation decisions.
COMPLETE POTATO MANAGEMENT. All of the above services plus planter and seed cutting checks and calibration. Weed, insect and disease scouting (full season) plus moisture monitoring. Fields will be scouted on a weekly or more frequent basis from pre-planting until harvest.
The use of the handheld nitrate meter allows for instant results to be forwarded to our growers for prompt decisions on fertigation. The variable rate maps from the soil and UAV also allow us to fine tune variable rate irrigation/fertigation programs.
Results are available via web or mobile apps to assist in on-farm record keeping. Track irrigation, spraying – or any other application or event that happens on the fields.
WEED & DISEASE MANAGEMENT. In crop weed, disease and insect scouting and recommendations provided.
A complete scout report is provided with each scout.
Lab Fees are extra.

UAV TECHNOLOGY
Our high resolution colour image, (up to 3 cm resolution) gives you the ability to count the plants in certain crops, add up weather impacted areas of fields and give you a perspective of what your crop looks like. The NIR camera allows us to create NDVI images that measures the health of the crop and allows us to create variable rate in season nitrogen maps or RX fungicide maps.
WE USE SENSFLY. An image of your field is taken and the data is returned to you in 24 hours. This is critical for time sensitive applications like variable rate fungicide.
