Peter - The testing will be done by Elaine Ingham's lab in Oregon. We are still working on which tests to conduct.
Elaine suggested testing as follows: >The tests I'd want to see are total and active bacteria, total and >active fungi, protozoa, and nematodes. If the material was added in >fields with plants, running mycorrhizal colonization would be good >too! But we are still discussing that also. -Allan >Hi Bonnie, Which lab are you testing with and which tests are intended? How >wide a sample are you intending to look at?
