Abstract/Description
By taking multiple soil samples in various fields in the Kentucky and Indiana regions our group was able to perform multiple soil analysis tests. Some of the tests that were performed was soil pH, soil organic matter, and soil aggregate stability. Using the results from these tests, we can determine how corn and soybean production effect soils in various regions of the corn belt.
