More accurate scouting efforts

Gather crop health readings in real-time to take your scouting insights to the next level.

How does GreenSeeker work?

To help you make well-informed nitrogen decisions based on sensor readings, a team led by researchers at Oklahoma State University developed a Sensor-Based Nitrogen Rate Calculator for a variety of crops and geographies.

The sensor emits brief bursts of red and infrared light, and then measures the amount of each type of light that is reflected back from the plant.
The sensor continues to sample the scanned area as long as the trigger remains engaged.
The sensor displays the measured value in terms of an NDVI reading (ranging from 0.00 to 0.99) on its LCD display screen.
The strength of the detected light is a direct indicator of the health of the crop; the higher the reading, the healthier the plant
