Sample Soil Fast With Collect-N-Go

Sample Soil Fast With Collect-N-Go FARM HOME Miscellaneous Kenny Neel has a hole in his bucket that makes soil sampling fast and easy Neel is a crop consultant who got tired of walking fields and pulling samples the hard way “I wanted to speed sampling but also minimize soil loss while collecting subsamples within a sample area ” explains Neel His Collect-N-Go Soil Sample Collection Kit solves both problems It includes a bucket an auger and a security tie The auger works with any battery-powered drill The bucket has a specially designed collector tube inside that extends out from the bottom “The operator simply pushes the bucket into the ground where the sample is to be taken and runs the auger through the collection tube into the ground ” explains Neel “The ruler on the side of the bucket helps ensure consistent sampling depths ” As the auger is pulled back out of the ground dirt cascades into the bucket to mix with other samples from the same area The collection tube protruding inside the bucket keeps sample dirt from falling out of the bucket When all samples have been taken the pour spout on the bucket makes bagging the sample easy “The Collect-N-Go cuts collecting time in half and handles even hard soil conditions ” says Neel “In sandy soil you don’t have to worry about it falling out of the probe before you have it in the bucket ” The kit is priced at $44 95 Replacement augers are priced at $36 95 Visit www farmshow com for a video of Collect-N-Go in use Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Collect-N-Go 2000 Northgate Dr Opelika Ala 36801 collectngonow@yahoo com; www collectngonow com
