Compost Testing
Eurofins APAL provides testing to help you understand the composition of your compost. Composts can be used as a source of nutrition and/or soil amendment and are typically combined with conventional fertiliser sources to improve production. However, considerable variations associated with the compost manufacturing process make testing particularly important to understand the composition of your compost.

Why test?

  • Receive detailed analysis into what makes up your compost
  • Establish compost nutritional status
  • Use this insight to budget the nutrition for yield outcomes

Note: Only dry or composted materials are accepted by Eurofins APAL. We are unable to test raw or uncomposted manure or untreated effluent. If in doubt, give us a call before sending us your samples. If you have raw manure or effluent we can discuss options with one of our partner laboratories.

If you're after more information about conducting compost sampling, our Compost Sampling Instructions will help you get on the right track.
