Compost strengthens soil health by increasing organic matter, stimulating biological activity and improving structure. Through compost analysis, Eurofins Agro Testing provides insight into compost quality, so growers can apply material confidently and effectively.

Compost testing determines the quality and fertilising value of compost used in agriculture and horticulture. It shows how much organic matter and nutrient content compost contributes to the soil and whether the material supports long-term fertility goals.

Eurofins Agro Testing offers compost testing for various compost types and application systems.

Compost supports healthy, resilient soil, especially now that fertilisation standards are becoming more restrictive. Because composition differs between farms, suppliers and storage sites, assumptions can lead to under- or over-application.

High-quality analysis helps growers:

• Support soil organic matter levels
• Improve nutrient cycling and structure
• Avoid uncertainty in fertilisation planning
• Apply compost more efficiently and purposefully

This analysis is valuable when evaluating compost batches, selecting suppliers or planning application rates per field. It supports sustainable soil management and long-term productivity by providing measurable quality insights.
