SOIL ANALYSIS TRAINING: FINALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR LAND IS TELLING YOU
Soil analysis is far more than a technical document — it is the health passport of your land. This 7-hour soil analysis training enables you to master each indicator and translate that data into concrete decisions, whether you are a farmer, an agronomic adviser, a teacher, a trainer, or a team manager.

THE REALITY OF THE GROUND
DO YOU HAVE A SOIL ANALYSIS REPORT BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO INTERPRET IT?
"I receive my soil analysis every year, but I don't understand half the indicators — CEC, C/N ratio, organic matter content… I follow the recommendations without really understanding how to reason my amendments."
"My adviser talks about pH KCl, saturation rates, humus balance… I nod along, but I leave no better informed about managing my soil fertility."
"I advise farmers, but I would like to deepen my overall reading of soil fertility — going beyond simple phosphorus or potassium corrections, and being able to precisely determine lime-magnesia requirements."
"I teach soil agronomy in an agricultural college, but I lack a practical framework to make soil analysis interpretation vivid and concrete for my students.
"We are looking to expand our training catalogue with a solid, Qualiopi-certified soil agronomy module, without having to build one from scratch."
"My field technicians all read their soil analyses differently. I need them to share a common agronomic reading framework."
What This Training Changes for You
Soil analysis is a language. Like any language, it can be learned. In one day of training, you will move from passive reading to active interpretation: every indicator will have meaning, every imbalance a concrete agronomic response.
You will leave with a proven methodology, decision-support tools, and the ability to analyse your own soil documents in order to sustainably manage the mineral fertility of your land.
THIS TRAINING IS TAYLOR-MADE FOR YOU...
SIX PROFILES, ONE COMMON AMBITION: BETTER UNDERSTAND AND ENHANCE YOUR SOIL
Farmers and Farm Employees
This training teaches you to read your own soil analysis independently, adapt your practices and reduce unnecessary inputs.

SOIL ANALYSIS: A TOOL RICH IN INFORMATION
Particle size distribution and soil texture
Organic matter: C/N ratio, humus balance, mineralisation coefficient, microbial activity index)
Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC): ionic reserves, filling rate, element distribution
pH and acid-base status (pH H₂O, pH KCl, carbonates, mastering soil acidity)
Macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium), micronutrients, and mineral balance

SOIL ANALYSIS IN FERTILITY MANAGEMENT
Soil fertility and its indicators
Soil analysis in the measurement of fertility
Complementary tests and analyses

A PRATICAL LOOK AT YOUR SOIL ANALYSIS
Interactive workshop: the trainer analyses the documents brought by participants in real time, providing personalised recommendations for each farm's specific situation.
YOUR TRAINER IN SOIL ANALYSIS
YOUR SOIL ANALYSIS TRAINER: FIELD EXPERTISE, DELIVERED WITH PEDAGOGICAL RIGOUR
Raphaël Martial is an agricultural engineer graduated from ENITA Bordeaux, with over 20 years of experience in the agricultural sector. As founder of TERREOM, he specialises in soil fertility, plant nutrition, and agroecology. He delivers soil analysis training to farmers, advisers, teachers, and training organisations throughout France.
His teaching approach rests on a fundamental principle: making the complex accessible. He combines scientific rigour with field-level grounding, so that every participant leaves the training with knowledge of soil analysis that is immediately applicable to their parcels or advisory practice.

Overall satisfaction
"This training taught me to read my own soil analysis and to choose my lime-magnesia products and application rates myself. In short: independence. Understanding your soil and knowing how to interpret a soil analysis also means significant cost savings."
PL
Pierre L.
Farmer, Landes (40)
"The advice is entirely independent of any commercial interest. For a soil analysis training as much as for a cover crop training, I would rather have Raphaël Martial than a cooperative or merchant technician. It makes all the difference in the quality and objectivity of the recommendations."
PS
Pierre S.
Farmer, Landes (40)
"I learnt to read pH and pH KCl, to decipher a soil analysis from end to end, and to reason my amendments and mineral applications. What I particularly appreciated: breaking down the interactions between pH, CEC, and elemental ratios. A training that genuinely makes you want to carry out more regular analyses."
TB
Thierry B.
Farmer, Landes (40)
"I acquired an in-depth understanding of soil composition and all the interactions between elements and crops. The interactive tools and tables developed during the training allow for direct application on my farm. A very high-quality training."
MF
Martine F.
Farmer, Landes (40)
"A very useful training for re-establishing the important elements that one tends to overlook when faced with a soil analysis. The materials are clear, the exchanges are enriching, and the trainer's expertise is beyond question."
BD
Bruno D.
Farmer, Pyrénées-Atlantiques (64)
"I finally have the keys to understand my soil analyses and interpret them methodically. The quality of the exchanges with the trainer is a genuine strength. A good, very comprehensive training."
