New cards

Nutrient Analysis

involves testing soil samples for essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, to determine fertility levels.

2
New cards

pH testing

measures the acidity or alkalinity of the soil.

3
New cards

Texture Analysis

determines the proportions of sand, silt, and clay in the soil, which influences water retention and drainage.

4
New cards

Grid Sampling Method

involves dividing the field into the grids and collecting soil samples from each grid to get a representative sample of the entire field.

5
New cards

Zone sampling Technique

involves dividing the field into management zones based on soil characteristics and taking samples from each zone to understand spatial variability.

6
New cards

Depth sampling Method

involves collecting soil samples at different depths to assess nutrient distribution and root development.

7
New cards

Liming

involves adding lime to acidic soils to raise pH and improve nutrient availability for plants

8
New cards

Sulfur application

is used to lower the pH of alkaline soils by promoting the release of hydrogen ions.

9
New cards

organic matter

help buffer soil pH and improve overall soil health.
