Soil Analysis and Testing

Soil biodiversity reflects the variability among living organisms including microorganism’s invisible to the naked eye, as well as some macrofauna. Plants support the entire living world in the soil, and in turn, the soil provides nutrients for and protects the plants. This diversity of biomes keeps the soil healthy and fertile and is essential for the functioning of natural ecosystems and the sustainable management of agricultural systems.

Protecting Soil Biodiversity

Soil Microbial Diversity Soil is the "home base" of microorganisms, with hundreds of millions of microorganisms per gram and tens of thousands of specie, including bacteria, archaea, fungi, viruses, and so on. Therefore, the soil is the richest "strain resource base" for human beings. They come in many different forms, and each group has its own unique way of survival. Although more than 90% of species cannot be cultured, advances in molecular biology techniques have greatly advanced our understanding of soil microbial diversity. Soil Animal Diversity Soil fauna is rich in species and together with soil microbial diversity constitutes the bulk of soil biodiversity. Soil fauna occupies about 1/4 of the diversity on Earth and about 3/4 of the multicellular biodiversity. soil fauna populates a rich and unique Spatial-temporal and functional ecological niche on Earth. Soil faunal communities contain rich trophic levels, occupy various positions in the soil food web, and have an important influence on soil food web structure and biological network relationships. Plant Root System Diversity The root system is the underground part of plants, which is an important organ for extracting water and nutrients from the soil and is the basis for the "survival" of plants. Changes in the underground root structure of plants play an important role in opening up new habitats for plants, ultimately promoting plant species diversity and soil biodiversity, which is the secret strategy for plants to adapt to their environment.

Our Solution

Our Responsibility

Soil organisms are considered to be transformers of soil nutrients, purifiers of pollutants, and stabilizers of ecosystems, which are closely related to human life and play a key role in addressing major global issues such as food security, environmental pollution, climate change, and public health.

• Soil biodiversity and agricultural production
• Soil biodiversity and environmental protection
• Soil biodiversity and climate change
• Soil biodiversity and public health

Soil biodiversity and the ecosystem services it provides are critical to the global ecosystem. And the intensification of human activities, such as changes in land use, overexploitation of resources, and environmental pollution, has exacerbated the decline of soil biodiversity. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the factors that threaten it and take practical conservation measures. Lifeasible focuses on plants and the processes by which they interact with their surroundings, and certainly pays sufficient attention to the soil environment, and proposes a range of solutions. In addition, we provide technical support in several areas to promote the use, research, and protection of the soil environment.
