5.2 Soil sampling is useful for the reasons presented in Section 1.However, it should be recognized that the general method is destructive, and that resampling at an exact location is not possible. Therefore, if a long term monitoring program is being designed; other methods for obtaining samples should be considered.
Typically, uniform fields should be sampled in a simple random pattern across the field collecting at least 15-20 equal size soil cores. Avoid, or sample separately, areas like abandoned farmsteads and feedlots, manure piles, fences, roads, eroded knolls, low areas, and salty or wet spots. (PDF) Soil Sampling and Methods of Analysis The approach to sampling the soil will depend ultimately upon the objectives of the study. Soil is typically collected using a shovel, soil core sampler of varying diam eter, large diameter cork GENERAL PROCEDURE FOR THE SAMPLING OF SOILS 5.1.1 Preparation. The area to be sampled shall be cleared of any surface debris (for example twigs, rocks or leaf litter). The first 8 to 15 cm of surface soils for an area approximately 15 cm in radius around the sampling location shall be removed to prevent near-surface soil particles from falling down the hole.

28 Oct 2016 A standard method has been outlined and widely adopted in New Zealand for obtaining soil samples. However, there is a growing trend driven by The soil test made will only be as accurate as the sample is representative of the field being sampled. Therefore, a good sampling method is important in getting For any previous sampling efforts, obtain information regarding sample locations (on maps, if possible), matrices, methods of collection and analysis, and relevant 18 Feb 2000 Soil samples may be collected using a variety of methods and equipment depending on the depth of the desired sample, the type of sample If the foundation is bad (soil sampling technique), the integrity of the whole house built upon this foundation is questionable.

Proper handling of soil samples prior to analysis will help ensure reliable test results. This section will describe proper handling techniques for moist samples,
