Working with Apical teaches growers The Apical Method. The growers’ focus becomes how to build crop resilience against known crop stress management, system points of failure, and unwanted crop problems.
Focusing on resilience can help you cut spending on unneeded inputs by getting to the source of crop management opportunities. This has allowed our growers to cut staff, limit meeting times, and ultimately wasteful spending, leading to a more streamlined operation.
The Apical laboratory methods were developed with the concerns of farmers in mind.
Inconsistent results, poor data management, and insufficient attention to detail common in other agronomic approaches have been refined by the Apical methods. Our rapid turnaround, easy-to-follow process, and effective data management strategies simplify your needs for multiple labs, comparing results, and managing data.
Apical’s sample processing typically takes place on the next business day after we receive the samples. This leads to a 24 – 48 hour average turnaround time for the grower from the time we receive the sample.
It can be helpful for us to receive samples between Monday to Thursday, we do not process samples on Saturday or Sunday.
Many of our customers work with professional agronomists or crop advisors to get the most value and actionable intelligence from each report. A competent agronomist will review your report and make recommendations based on the data and element ratios in each report and be able to explain what the report means in layman’s terms.
If your agronomist isn’t familiar with Sap Analysis or our system, they can quickly get up to speed by learning from our Resources page.
Every customer’s home page display’s each test that has been done with Apical.
The data can be compared to other reports for effective decision-making and to draw conclusions from simple experiments.
Our variety of consulting options allows each grower to utilize only the parts of Apical that they need.
Every recommendation is based on data generated for the crop at that period in time and starts with the opportunities to reduce plant toxins.
Apical’s consulting offerings can help the grower to learn how to implement ecological practices that can provide proactive benefits to the plant and soil. By focusing on long-term health, the customer’s results improve over time. The integrated recommendation with data makes it easy to track before and after application data, allowing the grower to draw their own conclusions about crop input efficacy.
Apical makes crop input ordering easy and efficient, saving valuable hours during the season. Our knowledgeable staff has consulted with hundreds of growers on a variety of use cases for each crop input and can help you best apply inputs to improve plant health.
Each of the products we carry has been validated for efficacy and is recommended only if the data indicates they are needed.
