but I am measuring rice leaves and not cover the cuvette. Thats the problem.

Vijay Singh

I guess you are using the default cuvette that came with the system. The best bet would be to measure the leaf area yourself i.e. Take a digital image of the leaf area within the cuvette and accurately measure the same using a program like GIMP or ImageJ. The PP systems machines can be equipped with a narrow leaf cuvette so it would be worthwhile to get in touch with them to figure out how is the leaf area measured in that case.
