Soil, water and plant analysis laboratory
Experiments and analyses in a controlled environment
Services, training and expertise in terms of agroenvironmental physicochemical analyses (soil fertility, plant nutrition, etc.), applied to different matrixes (soils, plants, water, etc.).

Managing cultivated areas means knowing about soil fertility, measuring any changes, and monitoring plant nutrition. Any attempt to improve productivity depends on physicochemical analyses.
The agricultural analysis laboratory supports CIRAD's research projects by means of its expertise in the field of soil, plant and water physicochemical analyses. The laboratory team determines mineral balances in various matrixes, and can suggest methodological adaptations to improve crop potential.
