New partnership highlights on-farm sensors

A subsidiary of co-op umbrella organisation, SAOS, the SmartRural project aims to demonstrate how readily available, cost-effective, digital tools can gather and use data from around even the most remote farms, to inform decision making, manage risk, and improve operations and outcomes. Its proprietary LoRaWAN network is a radio communication system which receives data from simple, battery-powered sensors up to 15km away, through a base station installed on a farm building. The data is then fed back through the internet to where it can be used by software to help farmers make more informed decisions in a wide variety of ways.
