Soil & Manure Tests

Soil testing is critical to maintain optimum crop yield.

Soil testing is critical to maintain optimum crop yield and most farms are required to test each field every 3-4 years. Basic analysis gives pH, P, K & Mg analysis, but for particular problem growth areas the full spectrum of nutrients can be tested to give a clear picture of where the issue lies and how to deal with it

Additional tests such as PTEs (heavy metals) where soil has potentially been contaminated, available nitrogen, organic matter, and a full soil health assessment are also available amongst others.

Manure, slurry and digestate nutrient can be analysed so you know the exact value of the product you’re spreading on your fields. Again, a basic analysis or a full package are available.

All testing is carried out in our TASCC accredited laboratory, and we are also a Licensed Seed Testing Station for certified seed. Click here to view the full range of testing and analysis options we have available.
