SAMPLING FOR PLANT ANALYSIS UW Soil and Forage LAB

Unlike soil testing, plant tissue analysis can account for the plant-available nutrient pools present at multiple soil depths, including deeper horizons. Because of the extensive root system in some plants, plant analysis is a complement to the soil test to better assess the overall nutrient status of a perennial forage system, while revealing

Plant analysis is the second tool, after soil testing, that is critical to improving crop nutrition and yield. Only plant analysis can identify the actual nutrient status of a plant or crop. While soil testing identifies the nutrients offered to the crop or plants, plant analysis identifies how well the plants utilized the soil and applied

Jun 01,  · The answer is that most labs in the southeast do not routinely test for nitrogen or more specially nitrate, as nitrate levels are a function of 1) organic matter and 2) rainfall. 1) In the spring as soils warm up and microbes start to mineralize organic matter. As the organic matter is mineralized you will get a flush of nitrate.

Sample collection and preparation are important steps for ensuring accurate tissue analysis results. Similarly to soil testing, tissue samples must be representative of the field. The number of plants to sample in a specific area will depend on the general conditions of plant vigor, soil heterogeneity, and forage management.

Plant Tissue Testing. Plant tissue analysis is a tool to diagnose growth problems in crops. Comparing analytical results from "good" and "bad" areas of a field, makes it easier to determine growth problems related to soil fertility. Petiole analysis is used to monitor fertility levels in crops such as potatoes and cotton.
