Foliage Analysis
Nutrient levels in foliage give a good indication of nutrient levels in the tree. By conducting foliage testing, Veritec can help foresters and nursery owners determine whether their trees are lacking in nutrients.
Determining nutrient levels in the foliage allows nutrient deficiencies to be addressed before they affect tree growth. Left unattended, nutrient deficiencies can result in smaller trees, which can negatively impact your returns.
Veritec can also call on expertise within Scion to give tree growers access to the latest forest health research from New Zealand and around the world.
Veritec provides elemental analysis and fertiliser recommendations using ICP-OES, AAS and LECO CNS elemental analysers.
The Forest Nutrition Laboratory is an active member of Australasian Soil and Plant Analysis Council (ASPAC) and has certification through ASPAC for many tests.
