Leaf testing guidelines

In 2021 and 2022 the Australian Olive Association (AOA) ran a series of ground-breaking field days across Australia. The field days emphasised the important role of healthy soils in producing healthy trees and lifting grove productivity. This leaf testing guide was distributed during one or more of the field days. Leaf analysis assists in analysing the soil biology’s performance in making the soil nutrients available, the total nutrients that are in the soil and what the tree is taking up and using.
