Land managers and environmental scientists are under growing pressure to monitor
and maintain soil health with greater speed and accuracy. Traditional soil analysis,
which relies on sample extraction, shipment, and off-site lab testing, often takes weeks
and requires considerable investment - delaying urgent interventions and making it
harder to keep up with changing regulations.
Enter the Subterra Green: this breakthrough mobile lab technology is transforming the way soil health challenges are detected and addressed.
Faster Site Assessments with Fewer Resources
Identifying nutrient deficiencies before they affect yields is essential. The Subterra
Green allows on-demand, full site assessments, reducing costs compared to
conventional lab testing while providing reliable, immediate results. Its compact,
portable spectrometry probe can be used directly in the field by a single user - no
specialized training or lab setup needed to collect detailed soil data across multiple
locations in one day.
This increased speed and resolution opens new possibilities: conservationists can
quickly validate the success of a cover crop or streambank restoration, growers can
update fertilizer plans to adapt to changing conditions, and every team can accomplish
more with less effort and expense.
Adapting to Evolving Environmental Regulations via Mobile Testing
With governments and market standards demanding more documentation of soil quality, the Subterra Green becomes a vital tool for compliance. Its secure real-time outputs make regulatory reporting and carbon credit verification fast and straightforward for farms, cooperatives, and agencies. By removing the need for sample shipping, response times are slashed, making it possible to meet new requirements almost immediately.
As climate trends accelerate, the old model of occasional soil sampling is no longer
enough. Real-time, mobile solutions like the Subterra Green empower land managers to
predict challenges, show stewardship, and turn environmental changes into new
opportunities.
