S4 Mobile Laboratories attended The Desert Difference AgTech Conference in Yuma, Arizona, a two-day event held November 13–14, 2025 that brought together growers, startups, researchers, and technology partners focused on the future of farming in arid regions.

Enter the Subterra Green: this breakthrough mobile lab technology is transforming the way soil health challenges are detected and addressed.

Switching from traditional laboratory soil testing to the Subterra Green’s mobile platform changes the game for farmers and service providers.

S4 Laboratories was honored to be named a recipient of the prestigious Morgan Startup Grant, made possible by the Burton D. Morgan Foundation in partnership with Bounce Innovation Hub. This grant program is uniquely designed to help early-stage companies transform bright ideas into tangible innovations that create both economic and societal value. For S4, the funding has provided vital resources to advance our technology platform and expand its applications into areas of real

Recent advances in visible and near-infrared (vis-NIR) spectroscopy have revolutionized our capacity to measure SOC in situ. Peer-reviewed studies consistently demonstrate that vis-NIR instruments, when properly calibrated, deliver rapid, reliable, and spatially resolved data on SOC and bulk density. This technology enables dense sampling grids and three-dimensional mapping—critical for both baseline establishment and ongoing verification demanded by carbon programs.

S4 Mobile Laboratories, a leader in mobile soil analysis solutions, has been awarded a $2,000 Morgan Startup Grant, introduced by Bounce Innovation Hub and funded by the Burton D. Morgan Foundation.
