Weather and soil sensors
Gateways and routers for weather stations, soil probes, water troughs and LoRaWAN sensors spread across the farm. The sensors themselves send tiny amounts of data, so the job is reliable, low-maintenance backhaul from the farm to the cloud.

Typical farm sensor set-ups
LoRaWAN sensors across fields
Battery sensors report over LoRaWAN to a gateway on a high building, and the gateway sends the data over 4G. A good outdoor LoRa antenna mounted high extends range across the farm.
Typical kit: a LoRaWAN gateway with a Poynting OMNI-300 LoRa antenna; see our LoRa antennas and Milesight range.
Weather station or data logger with Ethernet or serial
Connect the logger with a small router or serial gateway so readings reach your farm management platform.
Typical kit: Teltonika RUT200 or TRB246, and a multi-network data SIM on a low data plan.
Things to check
- Gateway position: height matters most for LoRaWAN range.
- Power: plan mains, solar or a DC supply for the gateway.
- Data: sensor networks use little data; 1GB a month usually covers a gateway.
