How It Works
Reduce Irrigation Costs Up To 60% with EarthScout®
EarthScout® Soil Moisture Sensors are a revolutionary, commercial grade smart farming IOT technology for measuring field soil moisture and helping growers reduce pivot irrigation and drip irrigation costs. Soil moisture data is sent to the EarthScout app on your smartphone real-time, so you can calculate the crop wilting point and safely dial-down irrigation systems to the lowest levels necessary for healthy plant growth. Many growers see a 30-60% savings on irrigation costs in the first season using EarthScout! Installed in minutes and easy to use, EarthScout Wireless Soil Moisture Sensors are perfect for helping the tech savvy or non-technical grower save money and time, and EarthScout is solar powered, so it can be installed almost anywhere! Plus, with EarthScout you can also:

Use EarthScout to Set Alerts
& Take Action
You can even set alerts on your phone – reducing risk by assuring you won’t over (or under) apply costly crop inputs, and supporting important decisions regarding:
| Aeration | Graphing | Mowing |
| Air Control | Harvesting | Pinching |
| Cloning | Humidification | Planting |
| Cultivating | Insuring | Pruning |
| Documenting | Irrigation | Ripening |
| Fertilization | Lighting | Soil Testing |
| Frazing | Mapping | Spraying |
How Many EarthScout’s Do You Need?
Try one EarthScout and gradually reduce your irrigation to safe levels just above the wilting point and save an average of 30% on irrigation costs!
Get two and place one in your best field, and the other in your worst field. Use the data from the best field as a guide to adjust water and nutrients in the other field until both grow well!
Access field-by-field or zone-by-zone growing conditions
Now you can carefully monitor the growing conditions of your crops real-time, with one click on your phone. No matter what you grow, where you grow it, or how you grow it, EarthScout can be placed almost anywhere, and configured to give you the data you need, when you need it. Explore some of our examples below, or contact us to learn how EarthScout could go to work for you.
Typical installation of 4-5 EarthScout Units evenly distributed across a 40 acre plot. Number may vary based on zones and soil uniformity.
Typical installation of 4-5 EarthScout Units evenly distributed across a 20 acre orchard. Number may vary based on zones and soil uniformity.
Typical installation of one EarthScout Unit per 1,000 – 2,000SF depending on zoning and species.
