Rising Beyond Traditions: Monitoring Kenyan Soils and Ecosystems Using Non-Invasive Seismic Technology

Agriculture in Kenya heavily relies on fertilizers, and traditional soil sampling methods have been extensively used to monitor and quantify soil health. The Earth Rover Program (ERP), a not-for-profit organisation, aims to empower farmers to sustain high yields while minimising interventions. ERP has leveraged traditional seismic technologies for non-invasively “seeing” into the soil.

The Harper Adams and BASE-UK Conservation Agriculture Systems Experiment.

Conservation Agriculture (CA) manages farms to boost productivity while protecting soil health. In this blog, I’ll outline the experiment’s setup, highlight key results, and show how it has supported other research, including work with the Earth Rover Program.
