Soil testing
+2
Hey all! I want to have the soil tested on the 14 acres I just purchased in the Ozarks. I'm not sure which one of these tests I should order? http://soilplantlab.missouri.edu/soil/testfees.aspx Our purpose for the land will be to eventually have livestock, a well, sustainable garden, off-grid cabin, etc. I appreciate your help!

I would just do the regular analysis done. If they have a local county extension and agricultural office I would contact them for advice too.

You should start with the basic test. If anything unusual turns up, you can always do one of the more specific tests.

I would test for garden first. The best way is to use a tulip planter.Take about 6 scoop in different places in garden area.Put in bag and mix,take sample out of that.It has worked well for me.
