Independent Irish providerIoT use case

Agriculture IoT keep an eye on the farm, from anywhere.

On a working farm, the things that matter most, soil, water, livestock and remote fields, are often the hardest to keep an eye on, spread over ground you cannot check by hand every day. Agriculture IoT puts live data behind them, so you know what is happening across the farm without walking every field, using IoT sensors we design, install and support.

  • Know what is happening across the farm, live
  • Keep track of soil, water, livestock and remote fields
  • IoT sensors and monitoring designed for your land
  • Designed, installed and supported across Ireland
  • Field sensors
  • Live monitoring
  • LoRaWAN

The problem

Too much ground to check by hand.

Farms cover a lot of ground, and the things that need watching, conditions, water and stock, are spread across fields and sheds you cannot be in at once. By the time you notice a problem in person, it has often already cost you.

You cannot be everywhere

Fields, sheds and tanks are spread out, and checking them all by hand takes time you do not have.

Problems show up late

A dropping trough, a failing pump or a sick animal is often noticed only on the next walk round.

Remote fields are a blind spot

The ground furthest from the yard is the hardest to keep an eye on, and the easiest to miss.

Conditions move fast

Soil, ground and shed conditions change quickly, and reacting late costs you.

Water where it should not be

Leaks, overflows and empty troughs go unnoticed until stock or crops suffer.

Records are in your head

What happened, and when, lives in memory and notebooks, not in data you can act on.

How it works

From field to alert.

A simple signal path: from the ground and stock you cannot check daily, to an alert on your phone.

Field sensor Sensors in the fields, sheds and tanks you need to keep an eye on.
Gateway Collects readings across the farm over long range.
Cloud Brings the data together securely in one place.
Alert See conditions live and get alerted when something needs you.

How agriculture IoT solves it

Eyes on the farm, without walking every field.

We put IoT sensors where they earn their keep, soil, water, livestock and remote fields, and bring the readings to one view, so you know what is happening across the farm without being everywhere at once.

  • Watch the ground that matters

    Sensors for soil, water, environment and stock across the fields and sheds that matter to you.

  • See the whole farm in one view

    Live and historic readings from across your land in one place, wherever you are.

  • Get alerted when something is wrong

    Alerts when a trough drops, a pump fails or conditions move, so you act before it costs you.

  • Built for distance and the outdoors

    Long-range, low-power IoT sensors reach the far corners of the farm without mains power at every point. Range and battery life depend on the site and sensor type, confirmed at survey.

  • Cover remote fields

    Bring the ground furthest from the yard into view, not just the fields near the house. Coverage across your farm is confirmed by survey.

  • Designed, installed and supported

    We survey, design, install and support the sensors and monitoring as one accountable service.

FAQs

Agriculture IoT: questions answered.

What is agriculture IoT?
It is using IoT sensors to track what is happening across your farm in real time, soil, water, livestock and remote fields, so you know without walking every field.
What can you monitor on a farm?
Things like soil and ground conditions, water levels and leaks, environment in sheds, and stock, depending on what matters to you. Sensor options are matched to the use case at scoping.
Will it reach my remote fields?
IoT sensors are long-range and low-power, made to cover ground away from the yard, but reach depends on your layout. Coverage across your farm is confirmed by survey.
Does it need power and internet in every field?
No. The sensors are wireless and low-power, and readings come back over the network we design. Timelines are confirmed at survey stage.
How do we get started?
Request an agriculture IoT review using the form and we will recommend the right sensors and monitoring.
