Soil data, side-by-sides and stories from progressive farmers putting Below Ground Management to work, and seeing above-ground profits.
Soil DNA doesn't lie.
Biome Makers ran DNA analysis on individual plots in Illinois. Every area treated with Pro-Soil showed improvement, with total biodiversity more than doubling and aerobic respiration up over 2.5×.
Higher scores mean a more active soil biome that cycles more nutrients to the plant.

Farming better than they thought possible.
I've been involved in agriculture for over 40 years now, farming these fields and involved in crop production for that period of time, and over the last five years we have found this product to enhance yields probably more than anything we've done in the last 40.
Pro-Soil's below ground management products are a top priority on my farm program. Input prices keep rising and your program allowed me, after 3 years, to cut back on fertilizer 50%, and on some fields a 60% reduction with herbicides!
From day one the product has never cost me money. I've subtracted enough out of my inputs to cover the cost of the product and have even reduced inputs further, and actually increased net profits while also increasing yields. The Pro-Soil products are a definite must for me. I highly recommend them.
The first two years on the Pro-Soil products we saw a 12 to 13 bushel improvement on side-by-side comparisons for our wheat crop. It's one of our less expensive inputs and it does more good than anything else on the farm. Best product we've found! We're in it for the long haul.
I'm excited and passionate about alfalfa again. The springtime growth is literally explosive. Our dairy guy that buys all of our hay is absolutely speechless. He can't believe what we're doing and I honestly can't either. Pro-Soil products have given me hope and have given us a vision.
We've seen a big difference as far as yield-wise and basically structure of the soil softening up. The root mass was unbelievable. Nobody in Indiana topped us yield-wise last year, and the test weights we had right across the scales were 59.2. We've never done that!
Since we started the Pro-Soil program we have seen nothing but good things on our soil and on our plant health and yields. On some of our slate ground that presents the most problems we have seen a dramatic improvement in the soil, and our yields have come up three consecutive years in a row.
There is absolutely no doubt that Pro-Soil is improving our ground and making us better farmers. In 2012, under one of the worst droughts ever, we still had beans that went over 70 bushels and the pod sets were unbelievable.
My dad and I farm together and my first year to use Pro-Soil my yields on both corn and beans were better than my dad's, plus we saw firsthand the improvements in roots on both crops. Dad is now using the products on every acre he farms and so am I.
We had never really put a lot of emphasis on our below-ground management, but now we are seeing things that you would never see with just fertilizer. Our ground has improved every year and our plant vigor and root structure is outstanding.
Biologicals have been a real plus for us. The root systems in our fields are a WHOLE lot bigger, and those roots go out and get more moisture and nutrients for us. As a result, we've seen a significant increase in yields. My only regret is that we didn't find Pro-Soil sooner.
Pro-Soil released nitrogen fertilizer not being utilized because it was tied up in the soil, resulting in increased soil tilth, improved crop health and higher yields on our farm despite last year's extreme weather in Oklahoma.
