“Monitoring the crops through the season, with the N-Tester, will give accurate recommendations based on what the nitrogen levels are in the crop. With more accurate rates for each field, the use efficiency will increase, meaning you’re getting the most out of the nitrogen that you are applying.”

Maximise return on N applied and improve yield quality with field specific N-rate recommendations based on the real N-uptake of your cereals.
The N-Tester BT has been field tested across hundreds of trials and developed by Yara Research & Development for over 25 years.
The N-Tester BT and Atfarm app work together to identify your N-requirements.
The device uses an LED and light sensor to instantly measure the chlorophyll content of a crop when you clamp it onto the newest fully developed leaf of a crop. This green level shows the N content of the plant.
These N-Tester values are automatically sent to your mobile device via Bluetooth™ connection. No internet or cellular signal is needed to record or take measurements.
GET YOUR N-TESTER BTAtfarm uses an algorithm powered by Yara agronomists to calculate the current N balance of your field based on the N-uptake measurements from the N-Tester BT. Decades of field trials by Yara ensure these calculations are accurate.
All you have to do is enter information about your field: crop type, variety, growth stage, target yield estimate, Soil N supply, N already applied.
After measuring your crops, you get an N recommendation that shows you the exact N needs of your crops.
Download the app
Open the Atfarm app and easily find the N-rate recommendation for your crops (shown in kilos of nitrogen per hectare).
The N-rate recommendations from the N-Tester BT are designed to help fine-tune N-applications during the growing season and help you maximise the yield return for every kilo of N you apply.
