AgriProbe Soil Sampling Machine
AgriProbe Soil Sampling Machine

Mounted on a Bobcat Toolcat base, the AgriProbe Soil Sampling Machine automates the task of collecting soil samples (covering over 40 acres an hour), with the operator remaining seated in the machine's climate-controlled, totally wireless cab. Each sample is extracted from the front-mounted probe and passes through a two-motor silo vacuum system onto a conveyor belt then duimped into a funnel and down into a bag located in the cab. Within three days, the AgriProbe can pull a sample, have lab results back, and (having been converted to a Probe2Prowler) be spreading fertilizer from variable-rate maps, the entire sampling-to-spreading process managed by the AgJunction Telematic program. (The Bobcat can also be used to pull a Veris rig and accommodates 40 different attachments for all types of other tasks.)
