Our Customers
Our Pattern results revealed high SDS levels in our field, which has never been a concern in South Dakota. Based on those results, we changed our management plan & went from averaging around 60 bu/ac to 80 bu/ac in fall of 2022.

Corn Rootworm has always been a concern in our area, so we've always treated for it. I received my results from Pattern, and found out my risk for rootworm was low. This allowed me to save money, and opened up my options for seed.

Frequently asked
questions
Why should I use Pattern Ag's soil analysis if I already have soil sampling done?
Traditional soil analysis only looks at nutrient levels and offers no insights into pest and pathogen risks or the biological availability of soil nutrients. Our predictive analysis lets you make more informed, profitable input decisions across your seed, crop protection, and fertility spend every year.
What will this tell me about my field that I don't already know?
We measure the presence and abundance of organisms impacting your seed, crop protection, and fertility plans. Each sample generates >10 million genetic reads, which are tiny biosensors telling us critical information about your field.
How do you know your results are accurate?
We invest heavily in R&D to validate the sensitivity and specificity of every analytic we provide. Once we can consistently and reliably detect our targets, we conduct extensive field trials across the Midwest to understand their relationship to yield outcomes.
