Abstract

"Soil testing is an important cornerstone of sound nutrient management and comprehensive soil health assessment. It allows producers, land managers, and researchers to make informed decisions about fertilizer inputs, soil amendments, and sustainable management practices. However, the reliability and usefulness of soil test results are dependent on how the soil samples are collected, especially the sampling depth and technique used in the field. Improper sampling can introduce significant errors in the results, potentially leading to inaccurate nutrient recommendations, economic losses, and missed opportunities to enhance soil productivity and long-term soil function." -- first page
