SOIL TESTING & GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION

In agriculture, a soil test commonly refers to the analysis of a soil sample to determine nutrient content, composition, and other characteristics such as the acidity or pH level. A soil test can determine fertility, or the expected growth potential of the soil which indicates nutrient deficiencies, potential toxicities from excessive fertility and inhibitions from the presence of non-essential trace minerals. The test is used to mimic the function of roots to assimilate minerals.

Soil testing is performed by Alpha Test House laboratory that offer a variety of tests, targeting groups of compounds and minerals. The advantages associated with Alpha Test House is that they are familiar with the chemistry of the soil. This enables our expert technicians to recommend the tests that are most likely to reveal useful information.

We provide Soil Analysis and Investigation Testing Services with the team of skilled professionals. Being well-equipped with all the requisite machines and technology, we cater to diversified requirements of the clients as per their varied demands. These services help to diagnose the condition of soil and come up with specific solutions.

Our Laboratory testing often check for plant nutrients in three categories:

• Major nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K)

• Secondary nutrients: sulfur, calcium, magnesium

• Minor nutrients: iron, manganese, copper, zinc, boron, molybdenum, chlorine

The amount of plant available soil phosphorus is most often measured with a chemical extraction method.
