Technology for improving farming
and monitoring the environment

LESS has developed a suite of technologies that leads to better understanding of the environment helping farmers, agronomists, and ecologists.

Automate the data collection and generate alerts when something is not going as expected, creating a baseline for actions to take such as save time and improve product's quality are some of the advantages of LESS product line for agriculture and environmental protection.

The LESS farming ecosystem integrates multiple sensors that, combined with different algorithms, leads to comprehensive solutions for applications such as stored grain condition sensing, water management in cultivation, and weather monitoring.
  1. Silo bag monitoring: It allows grain producers or middle men to monitor the condition of the grain stored in outdoor grain silos.
  2. Pivot monitoring: It helps to know the pivot performance, measuring orientation, rotation speed, and water flow and pressure.
  3. Water level monitoring: It is ideal for monitoring water reservoirs for cattle or rice plantations. It triggers an alarm if the water is running low or there is an oversupply.
  4. Weather: A maintenance free weather station ideal for understanding the climate in your land.
  5. Soil moisture monitoring tool: It helps farmers to know if their crops require more water.

Storage:
Silo bag monitoring

This solution allows grain producers or middlemen to monitor the condition of the grain stored in outdoor grain silos using an algorithm that combines the measurement of CO2, temperature and humidity to identify the presence of biological processes that may lead to grain spoilage. The device is installed inside the grain bag since it does not require a battery change during the entire season.

Irrigation:
Hydric management, weather and soil monitoring

This solution allows farmers to get more insights about the field, from soil condition to weather information. It also adds telemetry for pivots which helps them understand the overall pivot performance.

Irrigation:
Hydric management and central pivot monitoring

The solution is designed to gather data from the pivot in the field during the irrigation process. The farmer is able to know how fast the pivot is rotating, as well as the actual orientation of the pivot every time. Also, the pipeline's pressure is reported, and is possible to define alerts combining both the pressure and the rotation speed.
