| Popis: |
The use of LoRa sensors and IoT in farming is increasing progressively. For this study, we installed a series of LoRa soil moisture and conductivity sensors at 5 cm and 30 cm depth in a Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz cultivar. The information gathered by the sensors show how rain or irrigation water infiltrates in the soil. This allows the farmer to take decisions regarding the use of water in a very effective, cheap and reliable way. Although the use of LoRa sensors is more common in irrigated crops of high economic value and yield, the use of cheap sensors in rainfed agriculture can be a great contribution to manage the crop and add additional value to the production. It could provide information on the water stress and needs of the crop and be decisive in assessing whether, in large areas of dry land, it will be economically profitable to cultivate. |
