Subject: RE: tissue sampling cost? It is all relative.



Little River, TX
The cost for a single named sample is $18.
Do you want to sample the whole field, or subdivide it into smaller blocks. Ten 10 acre blocks, fifty 2 acre blocks?

You thinking of a high school kid, with good shoes and a set of clippers? A trained technician with a set of wheels and equipment? Say $15/hr for the kid,to maybe you can get by with $75/hr for a trained technician.

I would probably subdivide 100 acres into 5 to 15 manageable blocks. Then look at the raw data and then average the results.

Midwest Labs have been very good to me. Should I say extremely patient? My only gripe has been I do not like the forms they use to go with the samples. Solution I make my own forms.
You can print off their forms from their web pages. There are basic instructions you also can print off their site.
