(Re-posted from Cornell Soil Health blog, June 13, 2014)
We recently made the new 2014 Soil Health Assessment Package available.
Please visit our website where you can find:
Information on indicators measured as part of our new package, including two new biological indicators we have added this year:
Sampling guidelines, and information on shipping samples
Two samples of the new soil health test report, which now includes:
- Additional information on the Soil Health Assessment
- A short narrative on what each indicator means
- Suggestions for prioritizing management options, to address constraints and maintain soil health
- Customized tables with general management suggestions by constraint (at the end)
Right now is a great time to submit samples.
Also – Save the dates if you have not already for our upcoming Train-the-Trainer Soil Health Workshop (8/12-8/15). We will be posting and announcing registration very soon.
Happy sampling, planting, scouting, advising, etc.! It’s a busy season!
