Protocols

When participating in Drench Tests or other farm management practices, there are protocols that must be followed to help us provide accurate results in a safe environment. We have put together a list of appropriate guidelines to follow when participating in our programs.

Checklists

To assist in the preparation of basic farm management practices, and to prepare for drench tests, we have created several checklists. Following these will hopefully help you be fully prepared and not get caught out come showtime.

Submission Forms

In case you have misplaced your submission forms, we have provided generic copies. We ask that you please fill out every section as accurately and neatly as possible. It helps in the fast processing of your samples.
