Soil analyses

Home / Agriculture - Soil / Soil analyses

Soil analysis is a valuable tool for producers and agronomists because it provides the opportunity to optimize agricultural practices to reduce production costs and increase farmers' income.

Soil analysis is performed either on uncultivated soil to select a suitable crop, or on established crop soil to determine the nutrients available to plants. The soil sample sent for analysis must be representative of the area being examined so that the laboratory results are reliable and the consultation effective. For this reason, sampling is carried out in a specific way, from selected points and a specific soil depth.

The parameters determined in a soil analysis are:
Mechanical composition
pH
Electrical conductivity
ESP and SAR indicators
Total and active calcium carbonate
Organic matter and C/N ratio
C.E.C. and exchange capacity of potassium, calcium and magnesium
Total and nitrate nitrogen
Available phosphorus
Exchangeable potassium, calcium, magnesium and trace elements: Iron, zinc, manganese, boron, copper and molybdenum.
