How would I determine if the soil is fertile based on the chemical analysis?

Answer 1

put away the chemistry set. if the soil is moist to the touch, is dark in color, and has a rich, earthy smell, it's good fertile soil.

Answer 2

I can make any chemical test of anything turn out the way you want, you pay me $10 you have ok soil, you pay me $500, This soil sample is awesome! Stay in contact.
Its a shell game, Nitrogen, Ph,Salinity, and junk. But like that other guy, I was raised by a family of farmers and we never needed a Chemical Analysis to tell us that a tornado and a hurricane would come this year. Look around, see anything growing naturally, its good soil. And obviously certain stuff will grow there.
Its the complete opposite of Science and Chemically Engineered Soils. After 35 years of putting nutrients,herbicides and other junk, it will become uninhabitable to most living organisms.
Pick up a handfull, feel it,smell it, taste it, then let it slide out of your open hand.You have just perfolrmed the test that has worked since Humans figured out Farming.

Answer 3

On the Potency of the Ph balance.
