Uses near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, to estimate quality metrics such as dry matter, Total Soluble Solids (TSS or brix), titratable acidity, and color.
Features a rugged, aluminum housing that is fully-submersible and built to withstand harsh conditions.
Daily Light Integral and Photoperiod Meters
Affordable all-in-one weather station that fulfills all your weather monitoring needs.
Lightweight, hand-held design optimized for field work
Minirhizotron system that captures non-destructive, high-resolution, digital images of living roots in soil over multiple growing seasons.
DLI Meters with Dr. Bruce Bugbee
Apogee’s new, rugged DLI meters make it easier than ever to make research-grade measurements of PPFD, daily light integral, and photoperiod at any location.
The different meter models can take instantaneous readings of PAR or ePAR and automatically record the daily light integral (total photons in mols) and hours of light (photoperiod in 0.1 hours) for up to 99 days. This data can be viewed on the screen by toggling through the screens or downloading via USB-C.
Non-destructive measurements of internal quality indicators for ANJOU AND BOSC PEARS, PYRUS COMMUNIS
Sugar content is an important metric in determining proper harvest time and eating quality in pears. The ability to quickly and accurately measure the internal properties of a fruit helps save time and money, especially when non-destructive methods are used.
