 | -dr.ir. Corné Kempenaar, Senior scientist at Wageningen University & Research in the Netherlands- “Precision farming is not possible without real-time local crop climate data combined with soil moisture and soil temperature data. Since 2016 I use this agricultural weather station on a field in Wageningen (The Netherlands), which has given me a good overview of the soil- and climate conditions for two years now. Usage of this data leads to better crop management and in the end to better crop growth.” |
