We design and build smart, wireless turn-key solutions for a wide range of agricultural monitoring uses. Applications include integrated pest management/disease control, irrigation, and water resource management. Our solutions are used by agriculture experts worldwide.
OTT HydroMet’s brand ADCON focuses on telemetry solutions based on its own ultra-low-power radio technology and GSM/GPRS/UMTS modems. These technologies are both integrated into our range of loggers.
What makes the ADCON solution unique is a range of unrivaled product features.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) aims to combat pests in agriculture in such a way that they have the least impact on the environment and the health of animals and humans. IPM regulations and principles prescribe the use of monitoring systems, decision support systems, and forecast systems.
Why is it so important? When you know the time point of the onset of a pest or a disease, you can make a timely decision regarding the phytosanitary measures to be taken. You can use pesticides more precisely and economically, which also leads to a reduction of existing resistances and helps to prevent them in the future.
