Depth Matters: Soil pH and Dilution Effects in the Northern Great Plains

Core Ideas Suggested soil testing depths in the northern Great Plains are 0–15 or 0–20 cm. Soil acidification is often most pronounced in near‐surface depths. Soil pH change was evaluated in two long‐term dryland cropping studies. Soil acidification at 0–7.6 cm was notably diluted at both 0–15.2 and...

Zusammenfassung:Core Ideas Suggested soil testing depths in the northern Great Plains are 0–15 or 0–20 cm. Soil acidification is often most pronounced in near‐surface depths. Soil pH change was evaluated in two long‐term dryland cropping studies. Soil acidification at 0–7.6 cm was notably diluted at both 0–15.2 and 0–30.5 cm. We suggest sampling soils at
