The Problem

Over irrigation leading to wasting irrigation water, energy & leaching fertilizer past the rootzone. This leads to losing money, contamination of the aquafer, lack of sustainability measures, electricity wastage due to over irrigation, lack of traceability measures. This results in non accountable environmental stewardship.

The Solution

Patented soil moisture and fertilizer tracking technology to monitor and report soil moisture and fertilizer activity in real-time to prevent all the problems mentioned above and offer traceability in the food production value chain.

The Differentiator

Patented and unique absolute multiple depth soil electrical conductivity measurement linked to very affordable (with the option of an integrated IOT module) IOT technology.
