Tractor-Mounted Soil Tester
The sampling arm is powered by a double-acting hydraulic cylinder that mounts behind the tractor. A stainless steel tube takes samples and then ejects them into a metal chute alongside the driver where they can be tested or bagged for later analysis. Core number and position are recorded on a laptop computer mounted ahead of the driver.
