Agronomist's Comments:
ATTENTION: This report was flagged with a "C" and/or "Z" to alert you that copper and/or zinc
have accumulated in the soil and are approaching a level that could be
detrimental to crop production. The C and Z symbols are printed on your report for soil test Zn and Cu index levels of 2000 or more for agronomic crops; for peanuts with
zinc, the level is 250. This note is designed to be a "trigger" that allows enough time to either
reduce the rate of application or find another field for application of biosolids
and/or waste water. The CTL (critical toxic level) for Cu and Zn is set at a 3000 index; for peanuts with zinc, the level is 500. Maintaining a pH of 6.0 or higher may reduce
potential for toxicity, especially for Zn. These levels are used by DENR as a benchmark to determine
when application of waste products should be stopped. The CTL for
copper and zinc was set to revent levels from accumulating to the point where they become toxic to crops grown on a field.

If testing finds that soil pH is too low for the crop(s) indicated, a lime recommendation will be given in units of either

ton/acre or Ib/1000 sq ft. For best results, mix the lime into the top 6 to 8 inches of soil several months before planting.
BS%

For no -till or established plantings where this is not possible, apply no more than 1 to 1.5 ton/acre (50 Ib/1000 sq ft) at on
