NIRS databases will be established and crop-specific calibration models developed for the non-invasive and non-destructive determination of dry matter content, fibre fractions (ADF, NDF, ADL) and crude nutrients such as crude ash, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre and sugar. Existing databases for forage, grass silage, silage maize and cereal grains will be used and progressively extended. The sensors will be used both in the laboratory and in the field.
