How does the FarmSens sensor kits work?
FarmSens uses real time data from soil sensors to offer actionable insights to farmers. You just need to purchase FarmSens sensor kit and install them in your farm. The sensors are easy to install. Then you download the farmSens app from the playstore, create an account and add the sensors by scanning the qr code on them. Next thing is add the crops you intend cultivating. Thats all! FarmSens will use the real time data from your farm to recommend suitable fertilizers and extension advice on resilient cultivation practises. This is to enable you achieve high yields with fewer resources. FarmSens will then use data from your farms to build a farmer profile which you can use to guarantee loans. FarmSens will also connect you directly to crop aggregators to enable you sell you produce at competitive prices.
-
Can I use the FarmSens products if I do not have a smartphone?
FarmSens was built with the needs of farmers at heart. Farmers without smartphones will be able to access the services via USSD. All you need to do is to indicate to the FarmSens agent you bought the sensor kits from. The agent will create an account for you, FarmSens will then provide all services to you via USSD and automated voice calls. FarmSens has field agents in all regions, they will be available to help you.
-
How many models of the FarmSens soil testing hardwares are avalaible?
FarSens has two (2) models whose prototypes are currently being piloted. Concepts for these prototypes have been proven. They are:
The fisrt model is a single portable hardware, robustly designed for in-situ measurement of preconfigured soil conditions. It comes in the form of a detachable probe and a meter. Data from the sensors in the probe are sent to the meter for visualization and storage. It communicates via Bluetooth, WIFI or LORA with FarmSens mobile applications for data logging.
The second model is the FarmSens Sensors Kit. These sensors are installed at various locations in the client’s farm to continuously measure soil parameters of interest. They form networks with each other, with one as a master and the rest as slaves. The master sensor serves as the gateway, through which the data is sent to the cloud via cellular connectivity.
-
Does the sensors need internet service to work?
No. The master sensor contains a SIM card, that enables it to send data via cellular connectivity to the cloud. This is neccessary to ensure the sensors work without internet connectivity.
