Country: Canada

Summary:

The overall purpose of this project was to develop a field protocol for testing two field-portable
near-infrared (NIR) spectrophotometers as on-site, free-standing (not in-line), measurement
tools for nutrients in hog manure at the time of application of manure to agricultural land. This
project is a developmental step between the analysis of hog manure in the laboratory using
near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the deployment of NIR instruments in the manure
stream for real-time measurement of composition of manure during application to land. The
field-portable instruments included the Textron Systems Corp (USA)/Case NH (USA)
ProSpectraa
