Commercial Soil Tests
Thank you for your interest in soil testing. The soil testing procedure for, residential, agricultural, wildlife, and commercial soil analysis through MSU has undergone some upgrades and changes. We no longer test the samples at the MSU labs, but still offer soil kits in our offices that are then sent to A&L Labs.
Commercial soil kits are $18 per kit (plus you pay shipping to the lab) and Residential (lawn & garden) soil kits are $26, which includes postage.
MSU Extension soil fertility recommendations for crop nutrients and lime, can still be obtained through our on-line MSU Fertilizer Recommendation Program, https://www.canr.msu.edu/fertrec/. MSUE educators and fertility specialists are available to answer your soil fertility and management questions.
