The Tektelic Agriculture Sensor is is the ideal solution to streamline and simplify the
collection of key soil and environmental metrics for crops, residential and
commercial lawns and gardens and golf courses . The device provides a straightforward and easy to deploy solution for soil moisture and temperature, air
temperature and humidity, and outdoor light monitoring. Enjoy increased crop
yields and decreased operating expenses with the deployment of this versatile
device.

The Agriculture Sensor utilizes a ruggedized IP-67 enclosure for use in the most
challenging outdoor environmental conditions. An integrated C-Cell LTC battery
provides substantial battery life up to 10 years with a battery status indicator for
easy reference. The Agriculture and Sensor is seamlessly integrated in TEKTELIC’s
End-to-End IoT solution.

Multiple variants for diverse mounting options are available including direct soil
surface mount or elevated mounting on a post, fence or vine. Soil Moisture probes are sold separately for the elevated mounting variant.

Example Applications

Soil moisture content detection
Soil temperature detection
Golf club grass monitoring.
