Falling producer prices and rising costs of production are increasingly forcing agricultural businesses to optimize production costs. Therefore "precision farming", the selective use of inputs such as water, fertilizers or chemicals, is now indispensable in modern agriculture. The growing environmental awareness of consumers further accelerates this process. Adcon was one of the first companies to offer a tailor-made solution for improved agricultural risk management. Why wireless? Why not standard loggers? Because you don't need the data in the field, you need it on your desk. Every week, every day, in the morning, in the evening, no matter if the sun shines or a downpour converts the road into a mud hole. Don't write down those values! Don't download from some loggers! Don't copy, paste, export, convert and re-import! Have the data come to your desk exactly the way you want it, 24/7 ! Different RTU's (Radio Transmission Units) and Sensors as well as various accessories are available to constantly monitor and transmit important information such as temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, leaf wetness, solar radiation, soil moisture, soil temperature or barometric pressure. Our versatile radio technology also allows for an easy setup of large-scale measurement networks which can handle up to 200 data collection points or more. Monitor your network and receive site-specific weather and soil data in near real-time. Retrieve data conveniently from your office and save precious time and money.
