Wireless Smart Agriculture Kit – Greenhouses – US915

Why Greenhouses?

Plants’ growth requires specific environments in different stages, hence climate-smart agriculture is important, especially for rare, precious, and high-economic-value plants. IoT sensors in smart greenhouses can strictly monitor the environmental data to create optimal conditions for plants’ growth, no matter for fruits, vegetables, or flowers, etc.

Description

SenseCAP Wireless Smart Agriculture Kit – Greenhouse monitors the environmental parameters in greenhouses for Precision Agriculture using LoRaWAN technology. This kit can precisely monitor micro climates and soil conditions inside each greenhouse, thus providing data-driven insights to create a perfect environment for the plants to maximize yields with energy-efficient methods.

LoRaWAN’s wireless feature helps get rid of the fuss of setting up cables. The ultra-long distance communication makes it cost-effective, with only one gateway connecting to 200 sensor nodes in the communication range.

With this kit, the following environmental data will be monitored once per hour by default (configurable to other intervals).

• CO2

• Light ntensity

• Air Temperature

• Air Humidity

• Soil Temperature

• Soil Moisture

• Barometric Pressure

The data is collected via LoRa Sensor Nodes and sent to the cloud through the LoRa Gateway via 4G network or Ethernet.

Features:

• Support LoRaWAN protocol Class A

• High reliability and stability

• Ultra-wide-distance transmission: 10km in line of sight , 2 km in urban scenes

• Battery life ≥ 6 years

• All parts are certified IP66 and suitable for outdoor applications

• Rapid installation and deployment

• Flexible cloud services with Open API for further development

Problem Solving by the SenseCAP Greenhouse Kit :

• Data-driven decisions for more efficient management

• Lower the inputs of manpower, resources while increasing the yield

• Precise and stable data for data analysis and downlink command

• Robust for long-term use, lower the overall costs

• Ready-to-use solution, scalable and duplicable for different scenario.

Apart from this kit, you can also deploy a SenseCAP all-in-one industrial grade smart weather station outside the greenhouse for collecting the parameters of air temperature and humidity, barometric pressure, light intensity, CO2, wind direction, and rain volume.

Greenhouses deployed by SenseCAP

Sweet Melon Greenhouse SenseCAP deplyment in Beihai

Yinhai District of Beihai City in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, with 18,000 hectares of arable land, has a farming population of 124,000, accounting for 53% of the district’s total habitants. The local government decided to partner with to build a smart agriculture pilot project within their 200-hectare agricultural demonstration park.

While SenseCAP provides the wireless sensor network solution to collect and monitor environmental data, our partner integrates SenseCAP solution with the controlling system to achieve the following goals:

• Automatically fertilize and irrigate the plants
• Automatically turn on the ventilation system
• Automatically manage the thermal blanket
