Climate plays a very critical role for farming. The whole IoT ecosystem is made up of sensors that can detect real-time weather conditions like humidity, rainfall, temperature and more very accurately.
These sensors monitor the condition of the crops and the weather surrounding them. If weather conditions change adjustments are made automatically, then an alert is sent.
People have traditionally used manual intervention to control a greenhouse environment. The use of sensors enables you to get accurate real-time information on greenhouse conditions such as lighting, temperature, soil condition, and humidity.
This data is used to make real-time decisions to automatically make environmental changes to a green house by opening and shutting valves for water and fertilizer or maintaining proper temperature.
Silos are used to store a wide range of material prior to transport or immediate on-site use. Maintaining an accurate understanding of their fill levels is essential for efficient operations and to maintain profit margins.
Depending on what your storing and for how long will dictate what type of sensors you will need. Simple sonar sensors can check silo content levels but more complex sensors can check, moisture, particles as well as co2 buildup.
Tank level monitoring is an important part of any farm. Make sure you get all the details you need from your tanks, like levels, temperature, PH levels and more.
By utilizing this data you can make quick decisions and adjust accordingly.
