Soiltech Wireless offers a cool way to keep tabs on your crops from planting to storage. They use a "beacon" sensor that you literally plant with your crop. This beacon measures things like temperature and humidity, sending that data wirelessly to your computer or phone. The Beacon sensor can be planted, harvested, and transported with crops, delivering data throughout the entire product life cycle.
This helps us:
- Know what's going on underground: No more guessing about conditions in the soil.
- React faster to problems: When we see a sudden temperature spike, we can investigate right away.
- Track your crop's journey: The beacon stays with the produce, even in storage, giving you a full history.
It's like giving your potatoes their own little Fitbit! This helps farmers make better decisions, potentially saving water and resources, while also improving quality. Adding wind and rain gauge makes it a lowcost weather station.
