Agricolture 4.0

Agrisense IoT is the complete digital agriculture system for farms, consortia and producers’ associations seeking to limit production costs and increase crop yields over thousands of hectares.
AgriSense IoT is also ideal for monitoring agrovoltaic installations.

AGRICOLTURE 4.0

AgriSense IoT is the revolutionary Netsens product already being used by hundreds of farms and consortia: a number of wireless IoT units with microclimate sensors (air temperature and humidity, leaf wetness, soil humidity etc) are positioned around a hub station containing the main weather sensors (rain, wind, solar radiation, atmospheric pressure); the wireless IoT units are installed on plots at a distance of up to 8 km from the station, and work without solar panels or electrical connection, making installation simple.
This considerably reduces purchase and running costs, which are up to 70% lower than a traditional weather monitoring station.

All the data collected are available on our LiveData cloud portal via the website or app, so it’s within reach at any time.
The platform provides models for the management and data analysis of the main farming needs: plant protection, water requirements, frost alerts and forecasts, as well as a complete record of all data collected.
AgriSense IoT is flexible and expandable, covering thousands of hectares with tens of sensor units, which can be installed in stages. It requires minimal maintenance, which can be carried out by the farms themselves or by local Netsens partners.

APPLICATIONS
