RhIzosphere ResearcH products
VSI is an offcial distributor for Rhizosphere Research Products (RRP) - the world leading experts for inert soil moisture sampling equipment (with no ion exchange).
Rhizon samplers can extract small volumes of pore water from soil and sediments, in an easy, non-destructive, repeatable way. They can be used for sampling water from unsaturated soils as well as from saturated zones and the extract can be used for the measurement of dissolved compounds such as nutrients, dissolved organic carbon or pollutants. In addition, specialized Rhizon Irrigators can be used for irrigation experiments. Thus, Rhizon Samplers in their various forms are an perfect match to the VSI Rhizoboxes and are made to be used with Rhizonboxes, allowing innovativ research and development projects.
