This service answers two questions about a soil: what it can grow, and whether it is contaminated. Nutrient and salinity work sits alongside screening for heavy metals, petroleum hydrocarbons and pesticide residues.
Issuing soil health recommendations to farmers or an FPO
Baseline check before a land purchase or a change of land use
Checking farm soil for pesticide residues
Assessing suspected contamination from industry or a spill

Questions we get asked
Can you assess land before purchase?
Yes. A contamination screen covering heavy metals, hydrocarbons and salinity gives you a defensible baseline before you commit.
How deep should an agricultural sample be taken?
Zero to fifteen centimetres for most field crops, and a separate fifteen to thirty centimetre sample for orchards and deep rooted crops.
Can you test a composite from a whole field?
Yes, for soil health work. For contamination assessment we need discrete samples with recorded locations.
