Hong and Y.J.Yun Cwhong@rda.go.kr yj.yun@merck.co.kr Real time test of Nitrate-N in the field for raw soil Justification O 20 ml of raw soil was added to 60 ml of water. O Shake for 1-2 minutes and filter O Filtrate is used for testing Nitrate-N by RQflex Method O Nitrate-N is much dynamic in the field soil. O Farmers wish to know the current soil N-status O Thus there is the need to test N status on real time base. O Adequate method has become available for this end Water Soil Rqflex Photometer (Merck) Calculation • Nitrate-N content in 10 cm depth soil is calculated based on N in soil water. • * Eg. 50 ppm --@ 160 kg N/ha/10 cm soil Quick Finder for Nitrate-N
