  1. Presentation on Mini Lab “Mridaparikshak” Developed by ICAR-Indian Institute of Soil Science, Bhopal Under NRM Division of ICAR

  2. Why “Mridaparikshak”? • More than 14 crore soil health cards (SHCs) to be prepared and sent to farmers. • Existing Soil Test Kits (STKs) are subject to human error. • Quantitative estimation of micronutrients is also missing. • Hence, this Mini Lab was specifically designed to generate SHC.

  3. Difference between soil test kit and Mridaparikshak

  4. Mridaparikshak . . . • Mridaparikshak estimates 10 parameters, important for assessing the health of the soil. It prescribes fertilizer nutrient doses for both macro and micronutrients • Soil Parameters • pH • EC • Organic Carbon • Available Nitrogen • Available Phosphorus • Available Potassium • Available Sulphur • Available Zinc • Available Iron • Available Boron • Fertilizer Recommendation • Nitrogen • Phosphate • Potash • Sulphur • Micronutrients

  5. Equipments in Mridparikshak Hot Plate Balance Smart Soil Pro Shaker

  6. Smart Soil Pro • Measures parameters and displays results • 20-25 samples/day • Can be sent to farmer’s mobile • A soil health card can be generated by using software

  11. Results . . . The results as given by Mridaparikshak correspond to the results obtained by soil test laboratories

  12. Comparison of results of Mridaparikshak with that of Laboratory (Accuracy %)

  13. Fertilizer Recommendation . . . • Mridaparikshak prescribesdoses of fertilizer N, P, and K based on the targeted yield equations, developed for different crops and soils. • Mridaparikshak also prescribes the doses of S, Zn, B, and Fe based on Critical Level Approach.

  15. Summary . . . • Mridaparikshak is a minilab, easy to operate. • It can be operated by young educated farmers/rural youth (12th Pass). • Mridaparikshak employs state-of-the-art technology, the results are stable, and reproducible. • Mridaparikshak comes with accessories that can be supplied on demand. These accessories are Geopositioning system and Soil sampling system, Tablet, and Printer.

  21. Why “Mridaparikshak”? • 1200 STL can analyze only 1.2 crore samples in one year equal to 3.6 crore in three years. • This is only 25% of the total soil health card need to be generated in three years. • Creation of new infrastructure would require 3600 new STLs, would amount to Rs. 2160 crore. • Existing STKs are qualitative in nature, subject to human error, and can not generate SHC. • Also, the quantitative estimation of micronutrients is missing. • Hence, there was a need to work out Mini Lab specifically designed to generate SHC.
