Published purpose

The project consists of acquiring and conventionally measuring the nutrient content (Nitrate-Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, etc.) in 800 potato petiole samples across nine farms, 60 fields, and three New Brunswick counties. The Visible-Near Infrared spectra of the samples will also be measured. Chemometric models that estimate the nutrient content in potato plants from the Visible-Near Infrared spectra will be trained using the spectral data as the predictor variable and the conventional measurements as the response variable.
