Project Title

Intelligent and Digital Soil Sample Management (DIB)

Project description

The DIB project serves zo optimize and digitalize the process of planning, conducting and evaluating the results of soil sampling in agricultural fields for the farmer. The aim is to provide the farmer with more precise information about the supply status of his soils.

In the project, the entire sampling process from ordering to evaluation of the sample results is to be digitalized. To this end, the varous players in a sampling campaign (advisory service provider, farmer, soil sampler, laboratory and farming software) are to be networked so that information and data can be exchanged.

For an optimized and meaningful distribution of the samples in the field, satellite data and data from a gamma spectrometer from the field will be recorded and used. The organization and execution of the sampling will be digitally supported and accompanied by consulting. The required documentation will be automated and results will be stored digitally to be available to the farmer for further measures together with the field.

Final report

Results and the Final report will be found here, as soon as the project is completed.

Results focusing on practiceorientation

As a result of the project, the farmer receives both a mobile and a web-based solution (APP) to digitally order, control, view and further use his planned and necessary soil samples. In doing so, he can access adequate advice throughout and saves personell effort, time and money through this process.

The farmer receives more precise information about the supply status of his soils. He can now supply these in a more targeted manner and thus not only saves fertilizer, but also prevents the leaching of e.g. phosphate through optimized application, since no more is applied than is absolutely necessary. The project thus contributes to soil improvement with sustainable land use and tillage. Results are presented at (agricultural) trade fairs and published in social media.
