Compost/ Lime/ Dolomite/ Gypsum testing
Soil amendment testing analyzes lime, dolomite, and gypsum to assess their mineral content. This determines quality and the optimal application rate for enhancing soil health.
Gypsum is a popular soil conditioner, providing calcium and readily absorbable sulphur for plant roots. While lime and dolomite significantly raise soil pH and increase exchangeable Ca and Mg, gypsum also boosts soil conductivity levels.
Our Soil Amendment Testing service analyzes lime, dolomite, and gypsum samples for calcium, magnesium, and sulphur content. We calculate gypsum purity based on sulphur levels, helping you assess amendment quality and optimal application rates.

We help you understand your compost's composition, which serves as a nutrient source or soil amendment. Testing is essential due to variations in the manufacturing process. If you produce organic compost, you can use it or sell it.
Ensuring your compost meets Australian Standards (AS4454 for compost, AS3743 for potting mixes, and AS4419 for landscaping soils) is crucial for quality.
