Annotation
A Dutch SME has developed an innovative soil moisture sensor that will send soil moisture and electrical conductivity data directly to the internet so that the information can be read out on a computer, tablet of smart phone. The Dutch SME is seeking a distribution agreement or commercial agency agreement with companies active in agriculture (horticulture, plants etc) that need a soil moisture sensor.
Offer description
A Dutch SME has developed a patented sensor that can be used to read out soil moisture and electronic conductivity (a measure for the amount of fertiliser) in pots with plants or in the field. It has been proven in field trials that by measuring soil moisture and electronic conductivity up to 50% savings on irrigation water are not uncommon, and likewise the savings on fertiliser are considerable as well. The developed system will thus pay itself back in a very short period of time. The Dutch SME is seeking a distribution agreement or commercial agency agreement with companies active in agriculture (horticulture, plants etc) that need a soil moisture sensor.
Innovations and advantages
- wireless, - small, - plug and play, - long battery life, - affordable, - plant quality improves - savings of 50% on irrigation water have been noted in field trial.
