Irrigated agriculture is a practice that uses equipment and techniques to supply partial or total water deficiency for planted crops.
It is present in all regions of Brazil, especially where there is water scarcity, such as the semiarid region, or where prolonged periods of drought occur, such as in the central region.
There are some irrigation models, such as the manual that has as negative consequences:
- high labor cost
- irregular irrigation
- low work efficiency
Another option is the non-automatized irrigation model, which has equipment, but is still manually controlled, which generates waste of resources, inaccurate irrigation volume and high labor cost.
The third model is automated irrigation, with complex equipment that is costly to maintain, in addition to the entire difficult to install cable network, necessary to make the operation possible.
ABOVE Above-Net proposes a new model , a solution whose topology includes sensors spread through planted crops by transmitting the relevant conditions and quantities to increase harvesting.
The benefits of this solution are:
- Low energy consumption
- Wide coverage
- Massive connection
- Low cost
- Easy deployment
- Real -time monitoring
- Precise irrigation
- Remote management
- Irrigation strategies based on time and volume
- Intuitive dashboard
- Custom alarm conditions and triggers
The solution also offers a system that detects irregularities and fires alarms via SMS or email to the maintenance team. Thus reducing damage and consequently increasing productivity.
All this through intelligent irrigation management, easy implementation and low operating cost.
