Smart Farming
Datalink Technologies and its partners are in the process of innovating the device range to encompass the IoT smart farming hype that is gaining interest around the world.
Mechanisation of farming activities with asset tracking has improved security of assets, and utilisation levels, but the big move now is the deployment of multiple sensors around the farm measuring everything from weather to livestock movement.
Low cost LPWAN platforms such as Sigfox and LoRa are making great in-roads in farming by giving farmers and agronomists valuable data that helps manage assets, crop rotations, planting plans, fertiliser spread and generally optimising activities to cut costs and improve yields.
