In-depth soil testing and nutrient analysis for targeted, site-specific turf nutrition programmes.
Healthy, resilient turf depends on more than simply applying the right fertiliser. Understanding your soil's nutrient reserves, availability and balance is essential for making informed nutrition decisions.
Soil Biology's Soil & Nutrient Analysis service goes beyond standard soil testing to provide a detailed picture of soil characteristics, nutrient status and the factors influencing plant nutrition.
Our comprehensive soil analysis examines:
Soil composition – texture and sand, silt and clay content.
Soil pH – acidity and its influence on nutrient availability.
Total Exchange Capacity – the soil's capacity to hold and exchange nutrients.
Exchangeable cations – key nutrients held within the soil.
Macro and micronutrients – available and reserve nutrient status.
Organic matter – its contribution to soil characteristics.
Estimated nitrogen release – potential nitrogen contribution from the soil.
Available soluble nutrients – nutrients available for plant uptake.
Nutrient balance – identifying deficiencies, excesses and imbalances.
Laboratory results are only valuable when they inform practical decisions.
Soil Biology interprets the findings to develop a site-specific nutrition programme based on your soil conditions and the requirements of your turf.
By identifying what is present, what is available and what may be lacking, we can recommend a more precise approach to nutrition.
A better understanding of your soil can help:
Identify nutrient deficiencies and imbalances.
Avoid unnecessary fertiliser applications.
Improve the efficiency of nutritional inputs.
Support consistent turf growth and resilience.
Develop a more targeted nutrition programme.
Our recommendations may incorporate Soil Biology's Amide complexed foliar fertilisers, S-Chelate micronutrients and other appropriate solutions according to the results.
Test accurately. Target nutrition. Support healthier turf.
