In-Field Heat Chamber
Heat stress risk is a growing concern for the agricultural industry. Developing plant varieties, such as wheat and barley, that are able to overcome heat stress is critical. The Biora In-Field Heat Chamber provides plant researchers and breeders with the necessary infrastructure to screen and test on-site.
The design of the Biora In-Field Heat Chamber allows for maximum ingress of natural light. Its lightweight structure, combined with large pneumatic wheels, ensures ease of movement across any terrain.
Additional height permits heat stress testing on taller crop types, including canola and sorghum.
