Organization: ISO
Publication Date: 15 November 1993
Status: inactive
Page Count: 14
ICS Code (Biological properties of soils): 13.080.30
scope:

This part of ISO 11269 describes a preliminary test for the rapid estimation of soil quality by comparing the rate of growth of roots of a specified plant under standard conditions with that in a test soil.

The method is applicable to all soils, soil forming materials, waste residues or chemicals which may be applied to soil, except where the contaminant is highly volatile or only affects photosynthesis.

It is applicable to the measurement of the effects of substances deliberately added to the soil and to the comparison of soils of known and unknown quality.

The method is not intended for use as a measure of the ability of the soil to support sustained plant growth.
