Integrated analytical solutions based on mobile diagnostics are a key driver of digital transformation in agriculture. In collaboration with our Dutch partner AgroCares, we’re introducing a new licensing architecture for the mobile scanner — combining soil, feed, and leaf analysis in a single device.
The updated solution leverages:
- Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIR)
- Cloud-based result processing
- Proprietary global databases, continuously updated with field samples from various regions around the world
Functioning as a mobile laboratory, the scanner delivers high-speed, accurate, and scalable agri-analytics directly in the field.
FeedCares — advanced feed analytics with support for compound feed
The FeedCares license update takes feed diagnostics to a new level. With the integration of a new database provider, the scanners now support full analysis of compound feed — a long-anticipated feature for users in the livestock sector.
Key features:
- Analysis of raw materials, TMR, silage, fresh grass, and finished compound feed
- Nutritional profiling by key parameters: protein, fiber, ash, fat, starch, amino acids, energy, pH, digestibility, and more
- Specialized packages for different sectors: cattle, swine, poultry
- Customizable report structure: logo, colors, language, and units
SoilCares — an upgraded multi-tier system for precise soil analysis
The updated SoilCares architecture is built on a multi-tier access model — ranging from basic analysis for launching the service in new regions to fully customized solutions for large agribusinesses. Licenses scale according to the number of users, depth of parameters, and reporting capabilities.
Availablelicenses:
- Bronze — an entry-level license for operations in new regions.
- Silver — includes agronomic recommendations. A white-label option is available for partners with 5+ licenses.
- Gold — full customization for agri-service companies and large-scale holdings with 10+ scanners.
At the functional level, the licenses cover analysis of pH, organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, macro- and micronutrients, soil moisture, and texture. Higher access levels unlock advanced calculated parameters such as potentially mineralizable nitrogen, cation ratios, wilting point, USDA soil texture triangle, and agrochemical balance metrics.
In parallel with analytics, a robust agronomic interpretation system has been introduced — featuring fertility graphs and tables, crop-specific recommendations, and crop type selection tailored to individual field conditions.
LeafCares — a new module for rapid plant nutrition diagnostics
The LeafCares module is being introduced for the first time, enabling assessment of plant physiological condition during the growing season through rapid leaf tissue analysis.
Available licenses:
- Arable — for field crops (wheat, corn, canola, soybean)
- Orchard — for fruit crops (apple, pear)
Key features:
- Detection of macro- and micronutrients (N, P, K, S, Ca, Mg, Zn, Mn, Cu, Fe, B, Al)
- Analysis of nutrient ratios (e.g., N/S, Ca/B, K/Mg)
- Graphical visualization: current nutrient status, deviations from optimal levels, correction recommendations
- Support for custom threshold values, language, and unit configuration
The AgroCares F-series scanner supports all three modules: FeedCares, SoilCares, and LeafCares. License packages can be combined based on the farm profile, data volume, and client network structure.
