Practices Composite Composite Zone Zone Grid Grid

Methods Hand Hand Mechanical Mechanical

Purposes of Soil Sampling 1.Measure the nutrient content or availability of the soil 2.Identify nutrient deficiencies 3.Predict crop response to added nutrients 4.Build a nutrient management plan H. Zhang 2009
