Description
AMS Soil Fertility Kits include everything you need for cutting and drawing samples from a variety of soil conditions.
Soil Fertility Kits are used by agronomists and others specializing in soil fertility. They provide everything you need for cutting and drawing samples from a variety of soil conditions. Soil Fertility Kits include a replaceable-tip soil probe (1" X 14" or 1-1/4" X 14"), along with a standard oversized tip, clay tip, mud tip, and a serrated tip. The four tips included in each kit will allow you to increase and improve your sample recovery in a variety of soil conditions.
A plastic liner and two (2) plastic end caps are included with 1-1/4" Soil Fertility Kits but are not used with 1" Soil Fertility Kits. In soft, moist, or tilled soils, use the 10" rubber-gripped cross handle and if needed, the AMS adjustable footstep. Either the compact slide hammer or the hammer-head cross handle and dead blow hammer are used to pound the soil fertility probe into dry, hard-packed soils. The slide hammer also allows you to reverse hammer to assist in retrieving the sampler.
Please make sure any AMS samplers you intend to use together share a common connection type.
Achievable depth is dependent on soil conditions.
