Installation of Sensor Systems in a Fruit Tree Nursery
SST installed and configured an agro-meteorological station and sensor systems in a 30-hectare fruit tree nursery built to EU standards in the village of Kitsnisi, Shida Kartli region.
In the first phase of the project, the company’s experts selected the most suitable agro-meteorological station and sensor systems for the nursery. In the next phase, the equipment was installed directly in the orchard.
The following sensor devices were installed in the nursery:
-
Weather station: Vantage Pro2 (Davis Instruments);
-
Soil moisture sensors;
-
Leaf wetness sensor.
Through the integration of these sensor systems, the farmer will be able to manage processes and plan agricultural activities more effectively in the nursery. Specifically, the systems will provide the farmer with detailed information on:
-
Climate data (a total of 23 parameters);
-
Weather forecasts for 3 to 7 days;
-
Monitoring of disease spread risks;
-
Efficient irrigation management;
-
Hourly planning of agro-technical activities throughout the week, and more.
