Soil sampling is essential for effective farming, playing a pivotal role in soil fertility management. Through soil testing, farmers can accurately assess and monitor nutrient levels, ensuring optimal growth conditions. The insights gained from soil samples guide the application of lime, manure, and fertilisers, tailored to the soil's specific needs.
Fitz Scientific provides a range of soil testing services, including analysis for:
Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Potassium
pH levels & Liming Requirement
Organic matter content
Trace elements
These tests help farmers understand their soil’s current condition, enabling them to make informed decisions about fertilisation, crop rotation, and soil amendments. By identifying nutrient deficiencies and imbalances, farmers can apply the right type and amount of fertilisers, leading to improved crop yields and quality. The period January until early March is ideal for collecting soil samples, as it usually precedes the application of any slurry or fertilisers.
