AgTech: FONTAGRO sensor

Digital technologies can be part of the solution since they allow for more efficient, productive and sustainable agriculture through the optimization of its processes to produce more quality food in a more sustainable way. The objective of the project is to develop a technology for measuring soil moisture that allows maximizing production, improving food quality, optimizing water use and promoting the use of technologies in agriculture. The technological solution consists of a device or sensor that allows measuring soil humidity, encapsulated, robust, low cost and high usability. The device is complemented by a data visualization tool that does not require an internet connection to operate. Once loaded in the browser it can be used offline. Additionally, tutorial videos were created for the installation of the device, and the downloading and visualization of data, as well as a manual of soil moisture management practices.
