IoT solutions that help you succeed in Farming
Soil moisture sensors are of two types mainly – volumetric soil moisture sensors and soil water potential sensors. While volumetric soil moisture sensors measure the exact amount of moisture retained at that point of time, soil water potential sensors measure the moisture retention capacity of the soil sample.
The main uses of these sensors include weather forecast, research, landscaping, agricultural planning, construction and mining.

About IoT Solutions
In agriculture, soil moisture sensors are used for collecting data on water retention, pH of the soil, and other physical conditions. The data collected from sensors is fed to the Local Area Network and received on a mobile application or cloud storage. Further, the information helps to analyse the water requirements of the land, the health of the soil and provide a motive to research on suitable crops that can be grown on the field and hence, maximise productivity on the land.
The sensors available in the market mainly vary based on the code they run on. Sensors are preferred based on their ability to run faster, adapt to the weather conditions of the area they function and the duration they last.

Various plans can collect and analyse different conditions based on the purpose of use of these plots of land.
