How the promise of algorithmic agriculture crashed against the realities of plant biology and economic sustainability.

In the article, I provide an overview of the intricacies of leaf wetness and soil moisture sensors, explore the challenges of raw data, ...

How inaccurate soil moisture sensors can sabotage your irrigation efforts and what you can do about it.

Remember that time you spent months fine-tuning a machine learning model to predict crop yields? You meticulously collected data, tweaked...

Imagine you've developed a versatile datalogger-controller using an Arduino board to monitor and control environmental conditions. This device can accept signals from a variety of sensors, including soil moisture, electrical conductivity, and pH sensors, and can control solenoid valves using a relay board. To add a layer of precision, the datalogger incorporates a GPS module to geotag sensor data during field installations.
