SQAT has been featured by Innovation News Network, which published an in-depth article highlighting the project’s approach to affordable, high-resolution soil property mapping and its potential impact on European farming.
The article, “Talking dirty: Cost-effective soil property maps to empower the next generation of agricultural precision,” explores why soil health remains one of the biggest blind spots in digital farming – and how SQAT addresses this challenge by combining robotics,
soil sensors, satellite data and smart data processing.
It outlines how SQAT enables farmers to better understand soil variability within their fields and make more precise decisions on fertilisation, seeding, tillage and liming.
By lowering the cost barrier for detailed soil analysis, SQAT aims to make precision soil management accessible not only to large farms, but also to small and mid-sized operations across Europe.
The feature also highlights SQAT’s real-life demonstrations, including field pilots and public showcases, and explains how improved soil intelligence supports both farm profitability and environmental sustainability – from reduced input use to improved soil resilience and carbon management.
We are pleased to see SQAT recognised as part of the broader conversation on sustainable food systems, soil health, and the future of precision agriculture.
