Open evidence

Find evidence from conditions that resemble yours.

Browse field projects, observations, datasets, and methods by crop, region, soil conditions, practice, outcome, and evidence quality.

Evidence is contextual

A result without soil type, climate, sampling method, and management history is difficult to reuse. OpenSoil keeps that context attached.

Featured field records

Evidence in context

Launch-stage examples show the intended record structure. Demonstration values are clearly labeled until verified projects are published.

Different evidence deserves different language

OpenSoil separates what a person saw from what was measured, calculated, modeled, reviewed, or generated with AI.

Farmer observation

A useful real-world account with stated conditions and limitations. It is not automatically a causal claim.

Measured

A value tied to a date, unit, sampling location, depth, instrument, or laboratory method.

Preliminary

Early results that may change as more measurements, seasons, or replications are added.

Community reviewed

A contributor has responded to documented review questions. This is not the same as formal peer review.

Have a field result worth documenting?

Positive, negative, and inconclusive outcomes all help when the context and methods are visible.
