Test That Soil!

hand in soil photo Savvy home gardeners and commercial growers consider regular soil testing the most cost-effective crop insurance available. For the price of a couple of fast food meals, a grower can receive a detailed soil analysis from a state-of-the-art testing facility, along with crop-specific recommendations for what to do. Following through with these recommendations will save you money, help you grow better crops, and improve your soil environment.

For all the information you’ll need to collect and submit a soil sample, visit our Soil Testing Program Web page.

You can also get copies of the forms and information you need by calling or visiting your local UNH Cooperative Extension office, or by calling the Info Line at Extension’s Family, Home & Garden Education Center, 1-877-398-4769, Monday-Friday, 9:00-2:00 p.m.
