Meet this wireless irrigation control tool

reportajes_07062015_2Developed in conjunction with researchers from the University of Tokyo, SenSprout is a wireless monitoring system that records soil conditions in the field and humidity levels in real time, preventing farmers from using excess water or fertilizers.

Sensprout works by electronic sensors that monitor soil conditions. The LED lights inserted in the device change red, blue or green to indicate the level of soil moisture. The information provided by Sensprout is invaluable to farmers as it helps to identify only those plants that need additional irrigation to prevent wilting.

While other soil monitoring systems are extremely expensive, Sensprout is an affordable and reliable option for farmers around the world. Through the use of this revolutionary irrigation tool, more farmers will be able to make informed decisions about their water and fertilizer consumption.
