Universe Testing Laboratory is a trusted Farm Soil Testing Lab in Salem, delivering accurate scientific analysis to help farmers improve crop yield, enhance soil fertility, and optimize fertilizer use.
Agricultural soils face nutrient depletion, salinity shifts, and contamination from fertilizers or water sources, necessitating regular testing for sustainable agriculture.
The laboratory evaluates physical soil properties including moisture retention and bulk density, affecting water capacity, root development, and productivity.
Chemical testing covers pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and organic carbon to assess acidity, salinity, and organic matter presence.
Nutrient analysis identifies availability of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sulfur, plus micronutrients — zinc, boron, manganese, copper, and iron — for plant nutrition and crop performance.
Testing includes heavy metals and contaminants: lead, arsenic, cadmium, and other pollutants from fertilizers, irrigation, or industrial sources.
