Collaborative project: Mobile soil sample lab and data fusion for resource-efficient crop production - subproject 5 (soil2data)

Project


Project code: 2815707515
Contract period: 15.06.2016 - 14.12.2019
Budget: 201,594 Euro
Purpose of research: Experimental development

Knowledge of the small-scale nutrient status of arable land is an important basis for optimizing fertilizer input. With the mobile field laboratory soil2data soil sampling and analysis can be done directly on the field. Besides the advantages of a fast data availability and the omission of soil material transport to the laboratory, it forms a future basis for new application options, e.g. verification of the current analysis results with existing results and if necessary immediate repetition of the soil testing. An innovative key component is the ISFET multi sensor module. It measures values for the ions NO3-, K+, H2PO4-, the pH value and electrical conductivity of the soil extraction solution.
