What are the requirements for each test in USFSA?

One can test soils for lime requirements using the ____________ method.?

• One can test soils for lime requirements using the ____________ method. A) pH Buffer-solution B) Soil compression test C) Lime comparison test D) None of the above are correct.

• Answer:

  The Soil pH/Lime Requirement Test Kit is a dual-purpose kit for measuring both soil pH and lime requirement. This kit determines the amount of liming required for a particular soil. The standard method of assessing lime requirement is to measure the extent to which the soil depresses the pH of a buffered solution. The lime requirement test uses a buffer tablet and is carried out as a continuation of the soil pH test. The kit is supplied in a plastic carrying case and contains sufficient tablet reagents for 100 soil pH and 100 lime requirement tests. http://www.professionalequipment.com/soil-test-kit-ph-lime-requirement-sl152/soil-sampling/ Features: •Measures pH and lime requirement •Kit includes: •Plastic carrying case •100 tablet reagents for pH tests •100 tablet reagents for lime requirement tests
