The Scanner is a mobile device that provides an analysis within minutes, to be used in the field for quick monitoring of soil, leaf and feed materials. 

The Lab-in-a-Box is a fully equipped Laboratory for soil analysis that includes sample preparation and provides a complete soil status (Macro and Micronutrients) within a couple of hours.
