Submitted by Guadalupe López on 10 September 2019

Precision agriculture is increasingly important to obtain the best yields, optimizing the quality and productivity of crops, as well as saving water and fertilizers.

Tecnova Technology Center works to create adapted, useful and affordable solutions for farmers. Specifically, the agromotics area is working on wireless sensors networks based on open source software and hardware.

Thanks to this development, farmers will be able to collect information in a more economical way that will help them in decision making for stablish the irrigation and climate setpoints, crop protection on a preventive way... and will allow them to know the evolution of its cultivation through a mobile application.
