Farms are big, wet and a long way from a power socket, which is exactly where LoRaWAN works best. A single gateway can cover many fields, and sensors run for years on a battery.
We have put soil sensors in the ground alongside drone imagery for growers, monitored hydroponic systems and given plants a voice. We bring the same approach to any agricultural problem: start with what you need to know, then choose the sensor.
Soil moisture and temperature
Readings at root depth across fields and beds, so irrigation happens where and when it is needed.
Crop monitoring with drone imagery
Ground sensors combined with aerial images, so what the soil says can be set against what the camera sees.
MoreHydroponics and water quality
pH, conductivity and water temperature in hydroponic and irrigation systems, with alerts before plants suffer.
Greenhouses and frost
Temperature, humidity and light in glasshouses and polytunnels, and frost warnings for open crops.
Cold stores
Continuous temperature logging for produce stores, with out-of-range alerts.
MoreLivestock and equipment tracking
GPS trackers for animals, trailers and machinery, with geofence alerts.
MoreSmart pest control
Connected, non-toxic traps that report a catch straight away, so inspections happen when needed rather than on a fixed round.
Plant care
Moisture, fertility and light for every plant, from a single office to a nursery.
