N-Pen N 110

N-Pen Measures:

• N-Pen measures actual nitrogen content using the Normalised Difference Greenness Index NDGI
• Nitrogen reading is calibrated for particular plant (wheat, barley or maize) and is displayed as %
• Variety or hybrid differences can greatly affect N-Pen readings
• Plant diseases, nutrient deficiencies and other kinds of plant stress can also affect N-Pen readings

N-Pen Sampling:

• Difference Greenness Index NDGI
• Nitrogen reading is calibrated for particular plant (wheat, barley or maize) and is displayed as %
• Variety or hybrid differences can greatly affect N-Pen readings
• Plant diseases, nutrient deficiencies and other kinds of plant stress can also affect N-Pen readings
• Simply insert the leaf between the leaf clip and the optical tip
• N-Pen collects and stores individual readings and calculates the average automatically
• Readings should be taken on different plants of the same species
• Readings should be taken on the 2nd (maximum 3rd) youngest leaf on each plant
• Readings should be taken on about the same location on each leaf (close to the mid part)
