This invention describes a system that uses sensors placed in a crop to gather information about its condition. This data is sent to a central system which then uses pre-programmed rules and economic factors to decide if irrigation is needed. If so, it automatically turns on irrigation and informs the farmer. The specific types of crop characteristics that can be sensed are limited by the patent's claims.
Why it matters: Filed in 2010, this system relied on technologies that were either nascent or expensive for widespread agricultural deployment. Today, advancements in low-power IoT sensors, LPWAN communication protocols, and cloud-based data processing make such a system significantly more practical and cost-effective.
