Soil Sampling

For the correct collection of soil samples in the different production systems AGRARPROJEKT has the following recommendations:

  • The sampling must be carried out by a person trained for this job and it is preferable that it is always the same person.

  • The sample is taken with a stainless steel auger or one-sided tube made for this purpose, or with a shovel.

  • The sample is placed in a plastic bag with a label (if required, you can collect suitable bags for this sampling at the AGRARPROJEKT SA facilities).

  • Make sure to identify each sample with the corresponding information: Name of the farm and / or owner of the sample, place or area where the farm is located, lot (number or name), person who took the sample, date of collection of the sample, type of analysis required, telephone and e-mail of contact, and ID or RUC of the person of contact.

  • Avoid sun exposure to the sample and to high temperatures.

  • If you cannot send the sample immediately to the laboratory, store it in a cool place to reduce changes in the chemical composition of the soil due to the action of the environment and microorganisms.

NOTE:  To offer you a better service, please send the samples with the "Analysis Request Form" filled with the required information.
