Where should you begin with biological soil testing? Dr. Deb Neher of UVM suggests the wet aggregate stability test. This test helps determine how well soil aggregates resist breakdown in water, offering insight into microbial life, root function, and the strength of your soil structure. This clip is from Dr. Neher’s October 2025 presentation on soil biology. Watch the full recording on the Vermont Grass Farmers Association YouTube channel.

@marliefarris and @parkerchristian74 in our UpTerra fields doing a slake test to measure aggregate stability. Aggregate stability is crucial because it reflects soil health. Soils with good aggregate stability are more resilient against erosion and support life by improving water infiltration, aeration, nutrient cycling, and root growth. These factors lead to more productive and sustainable land. #soilhealth #upterra #betterwater@Marlie Farris
