Tool guides: features, inputs and results

Irrigation water analysis

Interprets the laboratory water analysis and checks the charge balance before the diagnosis.

mmol/L and meq/L EC and pH SAR and hardness

Irrigation water mixing

Calculates the ion by ion composition of a blend of several waters and the ratio that meets a target or a limit.

Water blending Resulting EC Salinity risk

Soil analysis interpretation

Interprets the soil analysis by horizon and ranks the problems by correction priority.

Saturated paste CEC and bases Salinity and sodicity

Plant spacing and density

Calculates the number of plants and the effective density of the plot, with aisles and margins deducted.

Plants per ha Effective density Bags and substrate

Irrigation system design

Places emitters, lines, paths and sectors on the plot and calculates flows, irrigation times and uniformity.

Precipitation mm/h Irrigation runtime Volume m³

Crop nutritional requirements

Calculates the nutrient uptake of the cycle and distributes it by periods with the irrigation water.

NPK uptake Distribution by dates Oxide and element

Nutrient solution calculation

Calculates the kilos of each fertilizer for a target solution and distributes them in tanks or injectors.

Target mmol/L Stock tanks A and B Acids and pH

Nutrient solution programme manager

Saves nutrient solution programmes by grower and crop, with different targets for each stage.

Programmes by stage mmol/L or mg/L Target EC and pH

Liquid fertilizers in tanks

Calculates the nutrient solution with liquid fertilizers, in litres per tank and with the density of each product.

Density kg/L Litres per tank Injection L/h

Injectors, mixing tanks and vats

Calculates the preparation of the target solution in the farm equipment: what goes in each tank, in which irrigation and with which injection.

Injectors and mixing tanks Preparations by irrigation Units kg/ha

Inverse fertilizer calculation

Calculates the solution reaching the dripper from the kilos loaded in each tank: composition in mmol/L and mg/L, EC and pH.

Solution at dripper EC from measured curve Loads per tank

Extensive crop fertilization

Calibrates disc, pendulum or pneumatic spreaders and plans the basal and top dressing of the season.

NPK kg/ha rate Basal and topdress Spreader calibration

Soil amendments

Calculates the lime, sulphur or gypsum rate to correct acidity, high pH or sodicity, with schedule and cost.

pH correction t/ha gypsum or lime Leaching depth

Organic fertilization and amendments

Calculates the rate of organic materials and the nitrogen available year by year, with the soil carbon balance.

Compost and manures N mineralization Organic matter

Commercial fertilizer catalogue

Catalogue of mineral fertilizers, acids and formulations with their composition, EC curve, solubility and density.

Fertilizer database Commercial grades EC curves

ECO / BIO fertilizer catalogue

Fertilizers, organic materials and amendments for organic farming, with their certificate and control body.

Organic certificate Control body Organics and amendments

Farm, parcel and greenhouse manager

Organizes farms, parcels, greenhouses and crops, drawn on the SIGPAC map and linked to fertilization.
