SoilSense offers the possibility of leasing a decision support system for irrigation tha provides farmers all the benefits of the most accurate soil data o the market at a competitive.
The solution comes wih a Datalogger, TDT sensors, and the SoilSense software which calculates the soil's safe moisture range for the specific crop, but it can be customized by adding a Rain Gauge or TDR sensors.
