Agronomic data collection and monitoring
We do
"Actionable data don't start in the laboratory. They start in the field, with the right question, the right measurements, and the right sampling strategy."
Before collecting a single sample, I assess the farm: land use history, soil variability, vegetation cover, topography, and the specific question we need to answer. I use satellite imagery to stratify the landscape into homogeneous zones, so sampling points are placed where they are most representative, and the number of samples is optimised for statistical confidence.
The output of this phase is a clear sampling protocol: exactly where to go, how many samples, at what depth, and following which standard.

SAMPLING DESIGN
SAMPLING DESIGN & PROTOCOL DEVELOPMENT
The right data starts in the field----> with the right sampling strategy.
The process begins by defining the question the sampling campaign needs to answer:
whether estimating soil carbon stocks, characterizing soil fertility, evaluating an agricultural input, establishing a baseline, or monitoring changes over time.
From there, I design the sampling framework around the expected spatial and temporal variability of the system
HOW IT WORKS
Define the objective — what decision will this data support?
Understand variability — what does the field, trial site, the farm look like?
Design the strategy — sampling plan, trial structure, or monitoring protocol
Develop the protocol — a field-ready document your team can execute
Analyze and improve — feedback into the next round of data collection
FIELD DATA COLLECTION
Soil samples are collected following the agreed protocol, GPS-georeferenced for full spatial traceability, and handled with documented chain of custody. I coordinate submission to accredited laboratories for the parameters your project requires: SOC, bulk density, texture, pH, nutrients: N, P, K, and biological indicators.
What you receive from this phase is raw field data plus processed laboratory results: clean, traceable, and directly comparable to any future monitoring round.
ANALYSIS & TECHNICAL REPORT
We analyse field and laboratory results in their agronomic context by integrating satellite data, soil science, and your specific management or reporting objectives.
We write a technical report with clear findings, spatial maps, and actionable recommendations.
Reports are written to the standard required by your audience: carbon market verifiers, organic certification bodies, corporate sustainability teams, or research journals.
