Soil chromatography: Pla del Pouet Baix
The overall impression of the soil chroma of Pla del Pouet Baix indicates rather poor soil health. No clear pattern has developed in this chroma and the overall colouration of the chroma is brown.
Channels are present but not well-visible. However, many spikes are well-developed. This indicates presence of humus and nutrients in the soil. One concentric ring is clearly visible and not interwoven within a pattern. This indicates an excess of soluble nutrients. The central zone has golden accents but is mostly dark. This indicates damaged soil. It could stem from use of heavy machinery on the soil or application of chemical fertilizers.
