Binds certified nutrient management planners, for the plans they write under Virginia’s voluntary certification program. It does not by itself require a farm to sample: a farm is covered only where it follows such a plan, and other laws, permits or contracts decide which farms must have one.

Virginia Cooperative Extension SPES-141NP, Soil Sampling Instructions for the Farm (2019)

The wording in the source

Timing

  • Sampling in the fall allows time to apply lime to adjust the soil pH before next year’s growing season

    SPES-141NP, step 2

  • For areas recently limed or fertilized, delay sampling at least six to eight weeks.

    SPES-141NP, step 2

Area per sample

Method

  • Zig-zag across the field or area as shown in the diagram.

    SPES-141NP, step 4

  • “Smart sampling” consists of sampling those areas of the field that are obviously different, such as with respect to topography (hilltops, low areas), or if a combine yield monitor has been used, high-yielding and low-yielding areas in the field.

    SPES-141NP, precision farming

  • If the field has been mapped, it can be divided by soil series (i.e., soil mapping unit).

    SPES-141NP, precision farming

Depth

  • The desired depth for cropland is plow depth (6 to 8 inches or more), and 2 to 4 inches for pasture land, or no-till crop fields.
