Abstract: An apparatus is provided for introducing a discrete, predetermined amount of material into soil at a plurality of predetermined points in the soil which includes a container for holding the material to be introduced into the soil, and tubing in fluid communication with the container at a first end thereof. At least one electrically controlled injector is provided in fluid communication with a second end of the tubing. Also, at least one shank is provided, which includes a base, and an injector mounting member attached to a surface of the base that is adapted for detachably mounting the electrically controlled injector onto the base. In addition, a controller is provided for activating the electrically controlled injector to introduce the material into the soil. Accordingly, enhanced control of the injection of the material into soil is achieved, and maintenance can be performed easily.

Abstract: Systems and methods for injecting materials into soil within a predetermined geographical area are described. One or more tanks store chemicals and a mixing chamber in an injector mixes measured quantities of the chemicals. The mixture is introduced to a stream of water and thence to the soil. A controller monitors the flow of chemicals and the stream of water and causes the injector to release discrete predetermined amounts of the chemical mixture into the soil at a sequence of injection points. The controller can provide a pulsed signal to control the volume and rate of delivery of water. The controller may operate according to a treatment plan.

Abstract: A method for the subsurface application of fertilizers, biologicals, fumigants, non-fumigant pesticides or other chemicals to soil with reduced application rates. Discrete amounts of the materials are injected into the soil at numerous sites along a path during a pass through the soil. At the injection sites, the materials form diffusion patterns which may touch or overlapping with diffusion patterns of adjacent soil injections. The application of materials to soil in this manner maintains optimum efficacy with the use of the least amount of materials necessary per acre of soil.
