Our Product line:
Hand-held Precision Plant Meters for the instant determination of the nitrogen, chlorophyll and water content of plant leaves using technology developed at Oregon State University.
  
Features:

Instant measurement of plant nitrogen and chlorophyll enables growers to adjust fertilization regimes during the growing season for optimum crop quality and yield.  GPS tagging of the reading locations and a knowledge-base are used for mapping the samples and showing their relative nitrogen content in relation to industry-recommended levels.  Growers may then correct the deficiencies accurately with optimal use of resources and minimal contamination of the environment.
  
Applications:

All plants with leaves or blades over 1/3" wide. This includes tree fruits and nuts, small fruits, ornamental and nursery crops, vegetable and agronomic crops, forest plants and more...

This Project was funded in part with Oregon State Lottery Funds administered by the Oregon Economic and Community Development Department
