A.GrEn.STeP presents an innovative sensing solution for Agriculture 4.0, integrating new sensors into a new electronic platform for signal conditioning and energy management, used for intelligent soil sensing and real-time assessment of crop growth status. The sensors operate in a matrix with RF/NB-IoT interconnection, aggregating, structuring and transmitting the generated information to the Cloud, detecting the existing composition "signatures" in the soil.
This technology will enable the reduction of natural resource consumption in the soil, preventing rapid degradation, reducing the use of phytopharmaceuticals, lowering costs and leading to healthier and higher-quality products. Increased crop productivity is achieved through the correct supply of nutrients at the precise time the plant needs them, as well as through early detection of pathologies that affect proper development.
