Veris U3 scanning is the next-level soil scan offered by Agrovista. The Veris U3 is a soil scanner that is towed by a pickup at speeds of up to 16kph, offering accurate and quick measurement of organic matter, electroconductivity(to ascertain soil type) and topography in one pass as continual sets of data.
This service offers more data than standard variation scanning, including nitrogen leach risk, water holding capacity, organic matter and CEC (cation exchange capacity).The data collected on its own will give very good indications of a soil’s characteristics. Combining individual data sets can provide very good indications of a soil’s health and how it may perform under certain conditions. Once data has been collected and calibrated with laboratory results, zones can be created using multiple data sets from the Veris U3 to show:
- Optimum planting zones
- Nitrogen leaching zones
- Nutrient lock up zones
- Water capacity zones
- Organic matter zones
- Soil texture
- Land topography
- CEC (cation exchange capacity)
