Comprehensive Overview

Soil analysis evaluates agricultural fertility, land suitability for construction, and industrial soil contamination caused by hazardous waste leaching or chemical spills. We analyze soil texture, organic matter, macronutrients (N, P, K), micronutrients, electrical conductivity, cation exchange capacity, and heavy metals in accordance with ICAR and Bureau of Indian Standards procedures.

Applicable Regulatory Standards & Testing Protocols

✓ IS 2720 (Methods of Test for Soils - Physical & Chemical) ✓ ICAR Soil Testing Guidelines & Methods ✓ USEPA Method 3050B (Acid Digestion of Soils)

Analyzed Parameters & Test Methods

Soil pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC in dS/m)

Organic Carbon (%) & Organic Matter Content

Available Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P2O5), Potassium (K2O)

Secondary & Micronutrients: Calcium, Magnesium, Sulfur, Zinc, Iron, Manganese, Boron

Soil Texture (Sand, Silt, Clay % Ratio) & Bulk Density

Heavy Metals: Lead, Cadmium, Chromium, Arsenic, Mercury, Nickel

Sample Intake & Turnaround Protocol

1 kg Composite Soil Sample collected at 15-30 cm depth | Turnaround Time: 4 - 5 Working Days
