Soil Test Fertilizer Recommendation Meter Kit

Product Details :

Plasti Surge Industries Pvt. Ltd. is a prominent Soil Test Fertilizer Recommendation (STFR) Meter Kit manufacturers, suppliers & exporters based in India. It is widely used equipment that helps in determining the quality of the soil. In other words, it is used to measure the fertility of the soil. Due to a lack of awareness or some other reasons, the farmers don’t get the testing of the soil. Without knowing the exact quality of the soil, the farmers use excessive fertilizers which results in the deterioration of the soil.

Current Indian Scenario on Soil testing:

• 1000 soil testing laboratories (STLs) throughout the country
• In case the soil of each farm, holding is to be tested, its turn would come at an interval of 10-12 years.
• Lack of voluntary participation of farmers in providing samples and receiving as well as implementing recommendations.
• The STL staff cannot reach the farmers
• As a result, farmers seldom get soil test reports in time i.e., before sowing/planting of their crops, and continue to use fertilizers in ad hoc manner depending on their resources and availability of fertilizers in the market.
• Result Deterioration Of Soil Fertility
