Real-Time Nutrient Damage
The GroundTruth Lysimeter System combines a very large repacked strip lysimeter with automated  drainage measurement and water sampling, providing a measurement of nutrient losses viewable in real-time.

The lysimeter can be installed across crop rows or plots, to integrate variation in the field. Once installed, the lysimeter is completely below-ground, unaffected by farm operations, and undamaged by cultivation

Soil Moisture In Coffee (Vietnam)

In the highlands of Central Vietnam, vast areas of planted coffee rely heavily on seasonal rainfall. With changing climate, rainfall becomes more unpredictable, and necessitates the investment in optimum irrigation. In cooperation with the Western Highlands Agriculture and Forestry Science Institute (WASI) the soil moisture condition in 4 year-old Robusta Coffee crop was monitored. The investigation also monitored seasonal variability of tree water use which was found to be reliant not only on soil moisture availability but also on seasonal sunshine duration. This use case can be downloaded from here on the ICT International Website.
