| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) tissue analysis. States that "the NIRS method is OK for measuring nitrogen content of turfgrass leaves but it is not very precise in predicting leaf content of other mineral elements." Mentions cost, stating that "the cost of equipment to easily do one's own soil tests would be more than $30,000...To do rapid multi-elemental analysis the same way all major labs do it would require equipment worth more than $100,000." |
