Cornell University conducted an evaluation of the AgriNIR™ Portable Analyzer to assess its performance in hay crop silage analysis and forage dry matter monitoring.
The work was coordinated by Dr. L. E. Chase from the Department of Animal Science and focused on validating current NIR calibrations through comparisons with laboratory analysis.
The evaluation involved:
The forage samples were analyzed directly with the portable NIR systems and then sent to the laboratory for additional NIR verification and comparison.
The purpose of the project was to verify the consistency and reliability of the AgriNIR calibrations under real farm conditions.
Portable NIR analyzers allow farmers and nutritionists to quickly measure forage quality directly on the farm without waiting for laboratory results.
Real-time forage analysis supports:
These technologies are becoming increasingly important in modern precision feeding programs.
The Cornell evaluation provides detailed comparisons between AgriNIR measurements and laboratory analysis results for hay crop silage samples.
