Nitrate Testing

Nitrate testing is a valuable resource for Teton County producers to utilize.  When sampling, please get a representative sample.  If you have 400 bales of hay, don’t pull from one bale, but take a stalk or two from 30 bales all over the stack.  If you need to send samples in for testing, we recommend a one gallon Ziplock bag.  A full bag will be required by the lab.  If you’d like more information about nitrate testing, o please contact us at the Teton County Extension office.
