® Grid sampling, guided by GPS, provides more accurate soil test data.
® Variable rate fertilizer application can improve efficiency.
® Variable rate seeding, variety changes and starter fertilizer can adjust for soil
properties and productivity.
® Crop scouting with new digital technologies improves field records.
® On-the-go yield monitors can quickly track variability in the field.

Essential parameters for suggesting and
practicing SSNM
® Soil testing-nutrient supply potential.
® Productivity targets of crops and cropping.

LCC for N management
® LCC developed from a
Japanese prototype (Furuya
1987) was standardized
along with the Chl meter.

Green-seeker for N management
® The sensor uses light emitting diodes
(LED) to generate red (660 nm) and near
infrared (NIR) (780 nm) light.
