More informed irrigation decisions deliver yield and profitability
Give your growers the real-time data they need to make more informed irrigations decisions. AquaSpy technology goes beyond measuring soil moisture. We measure crop uptake, so we know your crop is about to be stressed – before it’s too late. Better insights mean growers can conserve limited water resources while optimizing crop yields and enhancing farm profitability.
Soil moisture sensor technology has been around for some years, but installation costs and hardware equipment were expensive and time-consuming. Low bandwidth wireless technology changes all that.
Today, soil sensors have become smaller, lighter and easier to install, taking advantage of long-lasting battery and mobile technology to make them farm-tough, more reliable, and easier to use. Add to that crop and soil intelligence that AquaSpy has gathered over more than a decade in the field, and you get insight into specific crop’s water and nutrient patterns and needs that deliver results. The Pay as You Grow solution allows users to see daily stats on soil moisture, as well as density, temperature, salinity and water consumption – without stepping foot in their fields.
Crophesy’s probe sensors are spaced 4 inches apart and independently send out electrical signals through the layers of soil at the different sensor marks. Then, it uses AgSpy intelligent algorithms to turn those signal readings into actionable metrics and graphs through a Yield Efficiency Score (YES!). The YES! Score adjusts hourly, telling the farmer what the plant roots need to optimize stalk and fruit potential in a particular layer of soil.
Each crop type has its own specific needs, guiding the farmer for more precise use of water. Farmers find that using soil moisture sensors compared to watering how they normally would, saves them time, water and nutrients while it improves crop health and yield quality. When every drop counts, tuning into specifics for optimized application is critical.
