      Procedure for Taking Good Soil Samples

    1. Divide your fields into areas which have the same soil type, color, slope, fertilizer, liming, and crop history.

    2. Avoid areas or soil conditions that are different, such as lime piles, fertilizer spills, gate areas, livestock congregation areas, poorly drained areas, deep furrows, fertilizer bands, old fence rows, or any other unusual area.

    3. Do not use galvanized, rusted, soft steel, or brass equipment if trace metal analysis is desired.

    4. Scrape away surface litter and sample to plow depth for all row crops. On permanet pastures, sods, lawns, and turf areas, sample four inches deep.

    5. Several different tools such as a soil sampling tube, soil auger, or spade may be used in taking soil samples.

    6. Take approximately 15 cores or slices from each uniform soil area, mix them throughly in a clean plastic or paper container, then fill sample bag with one pound of soil.

    7. Label each bag with your name and your corresponding field ID number.

    If Samples Are Wet, Air Dry Before Packaging!
