Rapid In-Field Soil Health Assessment with Mobile Results

PES Technologies offers a fast, easy-to-use soil testing product that measures over 14 key indicators of soil health, including microbial biomass, respiration, organic matter, pH, nutrient availability, and water holding capacity.

Users simply collect a soil sample (5–15 cm depth), insert it into the device, and receive real-time results on their phone in just 10 minutes, enabling immediate insights for sustainable soil management and agriculture decisions.

Key Indicators Measured:

• Microbial Biomass (Chloroform Fumigation method)

• Respiration & Metabolic Quotient

• Soil Organic Matter % (Loss on Ignition & DUMAS)

• Bulk Density, Water Holding Capacity, Field Water Content

• Soil Texture (Sand, Silt, Clay %)

• pH

• Extractable Ammonium, Nitrate

• Available P, K, Mg

This solution allows farmers, agronomists, and environmental managers to make informed decisions that improve soil health, optimize fertilizer use, and promote sustainable land management practices.
