Detailed nutrient analysis

Critical

Attention Required

This location shows significant nutrient imbalances. Immediate remediation is recommended to restore soil health and fertility.

Major Issues
  • WORST copper excess (11.9 mg/kg = 24 lbs/acre) - approaching toxicity threshold
  • SEVERE zinc excess (184 mg/kg = 368 lbs/acre)
  • Critically low sulfur (14.8 mg/kg) - lowest of all
  • Low boron
Actions
  • ❌ ABSOLUTE ban on copper and zinc - worst copper location
  • Add gypsum at 1000g per 10m² for sulfur
  • Heavy compost - 50mm layer to immobilize copper
  • Grow deep-rooted cover crops
  • Deep irrigation to leach metals
  • Consider raised beds with new soil for sensitive crops
  • Will take 3-5 years minimum to remediate
