Dairyland Laboratories is now offering the new “UW Grain Evaluation System” developed by researchers Hoffman, Shaver et.al at the University of Wisconsin. This system characterizes Starch availability by measuring the three principle components of Starch Digestibility: Particle size, Moisture and Prolamin.

The UW Grain Evaluation system includes the following analysis: Particle Size, Moisture, Crude Protein, Starch, NDF, Fat, Ash, and Prolamin. The price is $47.00/sample and requires 4 – 5 days in the laboratory to complete. Click here to see an example of the report.

New Soil Report Flexibility

Dairyland Laboratories "new" web feature allows you to update or change the inputs used to create the Soil Test Report from a sample sent to the Lab months earlier.  Make the desired changes and the program recalculates the soil report data for the crops selected and information provided based on University of Wisconsin nutrient guidelines.  You can then simply print a new updated report for your customer.  This feature is available to current web users after you log into your account and select the Soil Report that you would like to change. 

Soil Sampling

Dairyland Laboratories is pleased to announce that we will now be offering Soil Sampling in addition to our quality lab testing.  Sampling will include conventional sampling of 1 sample per 5 acres as well as a variety of grid sampling options.  For more information click here-Soil Sampling.
