Illinois researchers are using the CornBox to conduct experiments on corn's response to nitrogen fertilizer, connecting living plants with sensors and imaging.
Dr. John Smith, lead researcher, stated, "The CornBox allows us to monitor the growth of corn in real-time and make precise adjustments to nitrogen levels."
The team aims to optimize fertilizer use, potentially reducing costs for farmers and minimizing environmental impact.
