FAQ
agroNET is a cloud-based platform that enable integrated overview of complete farm assets (tractors, machinery, irrigation systems, diesel generators, weather stations, insect traps, sensors etc.) and activities. The platform provides just-in-time guidance and support to farmers through different expert modules, which are designed and implemented in collaboration with relevant agriculture experts and are validated in collaboration with end users. agroNET comes with different configurations, tailored to the needs of vineyards, orchards, vegetable production, arable crop and poultry production.

Yes, the agroNET could be integrated with different systems already in use.
In principle, any hardware connectable to Internet, with open communication protocols and providing relevant measurements can be used. However, we do provide custom built and tested devices for each service.
Of course, we just need to check how to gather data from these devices, should some protocol adapters be created…
