LoRaWAN® for Smart Agriculture
Increases yield while making farms more efficient and easier to manage.
Livestock Monitoring
Livestock farmers can monitor animal health, welfare and productivity, including location, geofencing, movement, body temperature, estrus, grazing patterns and disease indicators, while reducing the risk of loss or theft.
Irrigation Control
Farmers and agronomists can measure soil moisture, rainfall, water levels and weather conditions to schedule irrigation more precisely, reduce water waste and improve crop performance.
Environmental Monitoring
Land owners can track local environmental conditions including temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind, frost risk, water quality and microclimate changes that affect crop growth and farm resilience.
Soil Health
Agronomists can monitor soil moisture, temperature, salinity, NPK and nutrient-related indicators from surface to root zone, helping improve fertilization, irrigation and long-term soil management.
Asset Management
Farmers can monitor gates, pumps, tanks, silos, machinery, storage areas and other farm assets, receiving alerts when equipment moves, fails, overheats or requires attention.
Pest and disease monitoring
By combining field sensors, weather data and disease-risk models farmers can detect conditions that encourage pests, fungi and crop disease, enabling earlier intervention and more targeted use of crop protection products.

Data-Driven Sustainable Farming
The Internet of Things (IoT) creates remote access to sensors across a farm, enabling efficient, real-time monitoring of many factors that have traditionally been checked manually, on foot, or by look or feel.
LoRaWAN is an IoT radio technology most suitable for smart agriculture because it offers connectivity from a central location out as far as 15km. Sensors are wireless, making for easy installation and have a battery life of up to 10 years, which minimizes maintenance. One remarkable feature of LoRaWAN is that it works well in remote locations, where other connectivity solutions cannot.
With LoRaWAN, farmers can monitor and remotely manage everything from soil condition to irrigation to livestock health. The result of having access to this data is more efficient operational practices, savings of time and money, and improved yield.
