There fore, we assume that samples are uniform and ac cu rate ly rep re sent the soil and crop conditions in the area sam best tools for sampling soil are a stainless steel or chrome plated soil probe and clean plas tic buckets. Do not used gal va nized tools or rub ber buck ets be cause of potential zinc con- tam i na sure tools are clean to avoid contamination from fer til iz er or other soils.

5 Probes can often be borrowed locally or can be purchased from spade or trowel can be used to take samples in turf or gar dens (see il lus tra tion).Proper Soil Sampling ProceduresSample SizeSoil samples should be taken by col lect ing at least 12 to 15 cores of uni form size and depth per sample. These cores should be broken up and thor ough ly mixed in the plastic bucket. Fill the soil bag about 3/4 full for rou- tine DepthSamples to measure soil fer til i ty should be taken from the surface eight inches of soil. Sam ples for certain crops, her bi cide residues, nematode as-says, and diagnostic work may re quire different sampling techniques. Call the laboratory if you have ques tions about sampling sample cores from com pressed soil to insure a con sis tent sample depth. On tilled fi elds, you may need to take the core from the wheel track of the sampling nitrate samples should be tak en in fi elds where nitrogen may have carried over from a previous crop.

6 It is useful to take subsoil samples in 12 to 16 inch increments. Put the surface eight inch core in one sampling buck et. Then, take a second core extending from 8 to 24 inches and put it in the other sampling bucket (see il lus tra tion). About 5 to 8 subsoil cores should be combined for one LocationWhen sampling row crops, take cores 4 to 6 inches to the side of the row. Do not take cores from the fur row bottoms or from directly in the areas should be divided into separate sampling units. These sep a rate units should represent the various soil types, cropping patterns, and pro duc tion history. Representative samples allow you to make more ac- cu rate fertilizer and herbicide rec om -men da crop samples should represent a maximum area of 40 to 60 acres for best results. Smaller, nonuniform ar eas in the fi eld (wet spots, eroded spots, etc.) should be sampled Conservation Service survey maps and fi eld histories can be used to choose sampling units.

7 Figure 1 shows how a large fi eld was divided into fi ve smaller, more representative sampling units according to soil type, slope, and fertilizer history. Note that the wet spot was not included in the sample number out the proper information on the Soil Sample Information Sheet. This includes your sample identification, sampling depth, crop to be grown, yield goal, fi eld information, and the test de sired.
