AgriCon Soil Sampler

Mapping of minerals in the soil

In Germany, collecting soil samples in cereal fields is mandatory for optimal fertilization planning. Traditionally, this involved ATVs stopping at predefined positions to collect samples, a time-consuming process repeated hundreds of thousands of times per season. Adigo partnered with precision farming company AgriCon GmbH to speed up this method. Together, we developed a world-first: a vehicle-mounted machine that takes soil samples at speed. Utilizing the vehicle's kinetic energy, the system collects samples without stopping, dramatically streamlining the process. Adigo's comprehensive contribution included concept development, construction, design, programming, testing, and piloting of this innovative solution.
