Corvian

A vertically-resolved Canadian prairie soil and nutrient analytical archive. Most fertility packages are sold as a surface plus subsurface two-depth bundle, so each field yields a soil profile rather than a single topsoil reading: nitrate-N, P, K, sulphate-S, pH and EC at surface with N, S, pH and EC at depth. Two extraction methodologies are offered (standard and Morgan/M3, the latter adding Ca, Mg, Na, base saturation, CEC, Fe, Cu, Zn, B, Mn and aluminium), alongside plant tissue mineral panels, liquid manure nutrient assays, soil biology and soil organic carbon testing for sustainability programmes.

Type: not stated
Format: Structured tabular lab results with an explicit depth dimension and a method identifier per sample; the published price list and package codes give a stable, machine-readable schema. Delivered as data-backed reports with recommendations through a commercial laboratory workflow rather than a public feed.
Volume: est. 10^5 to 10^6 sample results over the operating life, each carrying a multi-analyte panel at one or two depths, so 10^6 to 10^7 measured values. Priced at roughly 27 to 62 Canadian dollars per soil package with volume discounts and a 2026 master price sheet, implying thousands of packages per season at laboratory scale. The paired surface and subsurface structure roughly doubles the analytical value per sample versus single-depth archives.
Users: est. hundreds of accounts: ag retailers, agronomists, growers and enterprise programmes across the Canadian prairies (inferred from a published price list advertising volume discounts, which signals bulk-submitting retail and enterprise customers rather than individual smallholders)
History: 25 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active: a current 2026 master pricing sheet with transparent per-package pricing and volume discounts, a deliberately expanded menu spanning tissue, manure, biology, carbon and physical testing, and next-day turnaround options that require ongoing operational investment. Part of an enterprise rebuilding its data and laboratory lines under leadership appointed in 2022.
Launched: est. pre-2010 for the underlying Winnipeg laboratory operation, which was assembled into the platform through the 2017-2019 acquisition period, with the Corvian Labs Canada branding dating from the 2022-2024 corporate rebrand away from the Farmers Edge name.
