My dictionary rather unhelpfully only gives 'soil research'.
This is from a Belgian property rental contract
"Een bodemonderzoek zal ook op kosten van de huurder uitgevoerd worden"

soil test
I imagine they test the soil to ensure that it has not been contaminated.
If this is a test in advance of septic work, it could be a "perc test" (percolation), but that doesn't seem likely given that this is about a tenant and not an owner.
