Descripción:
Smart farming technologies have the potential to revolutionize agriculture by enhancing resource efficiency, productivity, and sustainability. However, small-scale farmers in Latin America face challenges in adopting these technologies due to limited resources and technological constraints. In response, we have developed an affordable smart farming solution that empowers small-scale farmers with a comprehensive system that strategically integrates sensors into monitoring stations allowing control over specific actuators. This solution enables precise and resource-efficient production, by using monitoring stations deployed in crop fields, accessible visualization dashboards for farmers to review collected crop data, and a context-sensitive alert module.
