Soil Moisture & Nutrients
Irrigating by schedule and fertilising by season are educated guesses. Too much water leaches nutrients and drives up costs. Too little stresses roots and reduces yield. Over-fertilising pollutes, excess nitrogen and phosphorus run off into drains and waterways. Without continuous, in-situ soil data, decisions about when to water and when to fertilise are made on yesterday’s information.
In-situ soil monitoring systems deployable at single or multiple depths that measure the parameters that matters at the root zone, in real-time. Soil samplers provide the physical soil sample for lab analysis when total nutrient content, regulatory-grade results, or physical soil characterisation is required. Together they cover the full picture, each available at Wetec.
