  Hi Rory,
  
  Yes, indeed. My device would tell a lot of information about the soil including: how fertile the soil is (also called soil nutrients) and send the data without wires to the farmer’s mobile phone or tablet.
  
  For more info about soil nutrients, you can watch the following video:
  
  The sensor I use for this is called Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium (NPK) Sensor which tells a lot of information about soil fertility.

thanks for your response, I’ll check out the video! Do you do much gardening yourself? Also, how expensive will your device be? Will it be widely available to farmers?
