The video introduces HarvestLab, a mobile laboratory integrated into a John Deere combine harvester and developed with ZEISS. It uses near‑infrared (NIR) reflectance technology to measure moisture, protein, and oil content of the grain stream in real time, performing about 4,000 measurements per second. The system automatically processes these high‑resolution maps to calculate the amount of nitrogen the crop has utilized, enabling the creation of variable‑rate fertilizer maps that apply nutrients only where needed. This precision approach aims to eliminate runoff, over‑application, and waste, delivering fertilizer savings and cost reductions for farmers while supporting environmental sustainability.
