Soil testing is a common practice in agriculture to estimate the plant-available concentrations of nutrients in the soil and determine fertilizer requirements etc. There are several types of soil tests conducted for different reasons, including evaluating soil pH, organic matter content, and salinity levels. Soil testing helps farmers make informed decisions about crop management and soil amendments, leading to better yields and healthier soils. In agriculture, a soil test commonly refers to the analysis of a soil sample to determine nutrient content, composition, and other characteristics such as the acidity or pH level.
Soil tests provide necessary information about the nutrient presence and availability in the soil. Mobility and availability of nutrients depend on soil pH, the nature of the parent rock, vegetation and microbial activity in the soil etc.
The importance of soil examination
Soil testing is important for several reasons: to improve crop production, to protect the environment from pollution by runoff and leaching of excess fertilizer, to help diagnose plant growing problems, to improve the trophic balance of farming means, to save money and conserve energy, and so on.
Features and advantages
-Soil tester fastly to measure soil moisture, pH, temperature and sunlight to help you take better care of flowers and plants.
- We can know when you need to water your soil by measuring moisture and pH & Temperature value of the soil and sunlight level of plants with it.
- The Soil Tester uses a large LCD screen and green backlight to conveniently display and read digital parameters in day or dark.
- Both indoor and outdoor can be used. The plant measuring instrument can be used for your garden, farm, potted plants, succulent plants, etc.
Quick Accurate measurement
The latest detection technology allow to having quickly and accurately measure the pH, moisture and temperature in the soil，with the light intensity of the light sensor analysis on the instrument, it can allow you to know when to water, to control the pH and temperature acidity, and determine whether the plants have enough light to better cultivate the plants more scientifically.
Easy to use
Just simply plug the probe into the soil about 4 inches（10cm) , wait 10 seconds to read intuitive data,and you will get an accurate and precise reading immediately.Just need to remove the probe from the soil and wipe it clean after using.
