Foot Notes
These prices do not include sample preparation/drying fee
*Weights are on dry weight basis, wet samples will need more sample to compensate for water in the sample. Test packages typically require 2 cups of soil. Too much less than this means some parameter analyses may not be performed due to lack of sample. Too much (much more than the amount needed) may lead to the lab imposing an excess sample surcharge to cover the costs of working with more soil than needed.
Notes**
- Preservation and special handling/storage required; consult laboratory.
- As + Se are now included in total element composition analysis.
- Special Handling charges may be included for atypical samples, special requests, or other problems with samples at the discretion of the laboratory. Late fees will be assessed to invoices past due.

*Sample size is on a volume basis.
Test packages typically require 1 pint of feed. Too much less than this means some parameter analyses may not be performed due to lack of sample. Too much (more than 2 times the amount needed) may lead to the lab imposing an excess sample surcharge to cover the costs of working with more sample than needed
Notes**
- As + Se are now included in total element composition analysis.
- Special Handling charges may be included for atypical samples, special requests, or other problems with samples. Please consult the laboratory.

Too much (more than 2 times the amount needed) may lead to the lab imposing an excess sample surcharge to cover the costs of working with more sample than needed.
Notes**
- As + Se are now included in total element composition analysis.
- Special Handling charges may be included for atypical samples, special requests, or other problems with samples. Please consult the laboratory.

Foot Notes
*Sample size is on a volume basis
Test Packages typically require 15 - 20 leaves. Too much less than this means some parameter analyses may not be preformed due to lack of sammple. Too much (more than 2 times the amount needed) may lead to the lab imposing an excess sample surcharge to cover the costs of working with more sample than needed.
Notes**
- As + Se are now included in total element composition analysis.
- Special Handling charges may be included for atypical samples, special requests, or other problems with samples. Please consult the laboratory.
- For Test Packages other than fruit trees, please consult your type of leaves needed, extension agent, or the laboratory for number.

Foot Notes
*Sample size is on a volume basis.
Test Packages typically require 1 pint of liquid. Too much less than this means some parameter analyses may not be preformed due to lack of sammple. Too much (more than 2 times the amount needed) may lead to the lab imposing and excess sample surcharge to cover the costs of working with more sample than needed.
