Frequently asked questions
Why are validation leaf samples included?
The 20 validation samples integrate your specific varieties or field conditions into the AgroCares crop database, improving the fit of the analysis for your situation.
Why do I need a special sample tray?
Leaf tissue is thin (under 2 mm), so infrared light would pass through the sample and read the surface below. The LeafCares tray is designed so that only the leaves are measured.
What happens after the first year?
Continue with a LeafCares Arable licence, available in the webshop.
