How it works?
1. Collect eDNA soil samples
Use our eDNA soil kits to sample the areas being restored. You will also need to take a sample from a reference site. We can support you on developing appropriate sampling strategies.
2. Analyze and modelling
We amplify and analyze your soil samples to characterize the diversity of soil bacteria, soil fungi and soil invertebrates using cutting-edge eDNA technology.
3. Score
The results of eDNA analysis are modelled against the reference site to generate Restoration and Soil Quality Hectare scores for each site. Site scores can be aggregated to provide project or portfolio scores.
4. Monitor
Site and project scores provide simple, repeatable numeric values that can be tracked over time. When soil composition is more similar to the reference site, it is a robust indication that management actions are moving in the desired direction.
5. Action
Easily compare sites and projects across your portfolio and use that data to take action to prioritize activities and resources.
