Soil Fertility Indicator for<br />
sub-Saharan Africa<br />
Agriculture is integral to success in rural Africa, having<br />
the potential to be an ‘engine for growth’ with small-scale<br />
farmers driving the process.<br />
Soil+ is a comprehensive, low cost solution designed to<br />
improve and enhance the farmer’s understanding of the<br />
soil properties, targeting fertiliser misuse and providing an<br />
indication of the overall soil fertility. The product calculates<br />
and infers pH and electrical conductivity values, comparing<br />
them to a benchmark ‘map’ of soil fertility, thus analysing<br />
fertility levels and making recommendations.<br />
