Using a DGPS in WGS84 format all features, structures and improvements within borderlines and above ground are surveyed and plotted. Features and structures include windmills, water-taps, pumps, troughs, corrals, gates etc. We make use of the National Geo-Spatial Information database supplied by the Rural Development & Land Reform to accurately reflect land gradient. Perennial water and dam-lines are similarly determined and reflected. Various soil types and variety produce that can be grown have unique nutrient needs and therefore require different management techniques when it comes to fertilizing. Years of continuous fertilizing without monitoring the soil composition to identify the deficiencies and surpluses can lead to imbalances of soil elements and have an influence on harvests yielded. The goal, therefore, is to identify and analyse the different soil elements and make the necessary allowances in order to effectively manage soil preparation for optimum production.
