YOUR SOIL DOESN’T STOP WORKING WHEN WINTER ARRIVES
As Prairie fields approach freeze-up, important changes are happening beneath the surface. Winter freeze-thaw cycles influence soil structure, microbial activity, nutrient availability, and ultimately, crop performance in 2027.
Healthy soils with strong aggregation, organic matter, and established root networks are better equipped to withstand winter stress. Meanwhile, soil microbes continue to influence nutrient cycling, affecting how nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients become available next spring.
This is where regenerative agriculture makes a difference. Residue retention, reduced disturbance, and improved soil biology help protect soil structure and support nutrient efficiency.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Every field freezes, thaws, and cycles nutrients differently. Your fertility recommendations should reflect your soil’s actual conditions, not just historical yields or generic crop removal rates.
Johnstons Regenerative combines PhD-level soil science expertise with advanced soil sampling technology to develop customized Advanced Fertility Recommendations for your 2027 crop.
Winter is coming. Your soil is changing. Is your fertility plan ready?
