| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses methods of testing soil for levels of acidity, calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium. Mentions that "there is no useful soil test for nitrogen [as of 1976]." Implies that excess fertilizer may cause as much detrimental damage as nutrient deficiency: "over-supply of one mineral can affect the availability of another." Lists sample quality, timing, and test interpretation as potentially important factors of soil testing. |
