A review of advanced soil and plant testing technologies in agriculture
Accurate soil and plant testing is essential for maintaining sustainable crop production and effective ecosystem management. Understanding soil fertility, plant health and nutrient availability is critical for optimizing crop yields, minimizing environmental impact and promoting long-term soil health.
Traditionally, soil and plant testing relied heavily on laboratory methods, but advances in technology have revolutionized the way testing is conducted. Today, innovative tools such as infrared (IR) spectroscopy, remote sensing, electrochemical sensors, smartphone-based tools and soil data management platforms provide faster, more efficient, and real-time solutions.
