In search of a smarter sensor

Mizzou Engineering researcher Matthias Young believes he’s found a way to keep the valuable nutrients on land where they belong. He’s developing a technique that could lead to new types of sensors to help farmers better measure nitrates and phosphates in the soil, allowing them to use fertilizers more efficiently.
