This line of modular testing equipment includes everything needed to perform on-farm testing in a tidy, compact kit. The rugged cases protect sensitive equipment when traveling over rough terrain. The mobile cart unfolds into a clean workspace, comprising a setup that is effective in a lab or on a barn floor.

Soil microbiology cycles nutrients, breaks down and incorporates organic matter, and forms soil aggregates. Biological farmers have many tools to evaluate the effectiveness of soil management practices. The most important of these is the microscope, which enables direct observation of even the smallest bacteria and fungi spores. Owning your own microscope allows you to monitor changes in your soil, compost or amendments to ensure you are making the right decisions, without the delay of sending samples to a lab.
