System for Agricultural Sample Slurry Analysis and Related Methods

A system for analyzing an agricultural sample comprising:

• a stir chamber, the stir chamber comprising:
• a housing defining an internal cavity configured to receive an agricultural sample, the internal cavity extending along a longitudinal axis from a bottom end to a top end;
• a first sensor fluidly coupled to the internal cavity of the housing at a first location with respect to the longitudinal axis;
• and
• a second sensor fluidly coupled to the internal cavity of the housing at a second location with respect to the longitudinal axis;
• a controller configured to receive a plurality of signals from the first and second sensors, at least one of the plurality of signals used to compute a density of a first region of the internal cavity located between the first and second sensors.

A method for analyzing a sample, the method comprising;

• providing a chamber comprising an internal cavity, the internal cavity extending along a longitudinal axis from a bottom end to a top end;
• fluidly coupling a first sensor to the internal cavity at a first location with respect to the longitudinal axis and a second sensor to the internal cavity at a second location with respect to the longitudinal axis;
• adding a sample to the internal cavity;
• reading a plurality of signals from the first and second sensors;
• and
• computing a density or a fluid level of the sample using the plurality of signals from the first and second sensors.
