Soil organic matter content detection system based on high-temperature excitation principle

November 30, 2023 | Computers and Electronics in Agriculture 

Introduction: Precision agriculture involves using advanced technology to optimize crop growth, and soil organic matter for crop growth. China Agricultural University and The Soil-Machine-Plant Key Laboratory of the Ministry of Agriculture of China collaborated on developing real-time method of measuring organic content in soil for precision farming. 

 Key findings: The research team employed an instrument based on high-temperature excitation, different from the commonly used spectroscopy. The new system is designed to be more affordable and less affected by soil conditions like texture and moisture. The system was tested with different types of soil, and the real-time organic content measurement is found to be accurate.
