Accurate Rainfall Data for Plantation Planning
IoT rainfall monitoring for large plantations. Precipitation intensity and accumulation are sent directly to your dashboard, reducing manual scouting, fertilizer runoff, and irrigation waste.

The Cost of Late Rainfall Data
Field assistants ride motorbikes across muddy tracks at 5:00 AM to read rain gauges spread across twelve remote divisions. By the time the numbers reach the central office at midday, localized downpours have already caused the damage.
Manual Field Scouting
Teams spend hours crossing difficult terrain to read manual gauges, and the records arrive late and often contain errors.
Business cost: Rain data arrives hours too late to act on
Input Washout
Fertilizers and crop protection chemicals are washed away by sudden, localized rain.
Business cost: Thousands of dollars of freshly applied nitrogen lost
Irrigation Inefficiency
Watering decisions rely on broad regional forecasts rather than conditions in each block, so crews apply too much or too little water.
Business cost: Wasted water and crop cycles drifting off schedule
Microclimate Blindspots
Undetected soil saturation creates conditions for pests and root rot before field teams notice.
Business cost: Fungal outbreaks appear weeks before the cause is identified
From Rainfall to Dashboard in Seconds
Built-in solar panels and cellular or LoRa telemetry remove the need for external wiring. Within minutes of mounting, rainfall accumulation, rate per minute, and intensity peaks stream into the estate management dashboard.

01
Rapid Field Deployment
Mount the pole-mounted, solar-powered ARR unit in any estate zone within 30 minutes.
No connection to the power grid is required.
-
02
Precision Ingestion
A high-precision tipping bucket mechanism measures rainfall accumulation and intensity.
Down to 0.1 mm increments.
-
03
Reliable Telemetry
Edge data transmits over cellular (4G / NB-IoT) or LoRaWAN networks.
This works across remote acreage and valley blocks.

04
Estate Decisions
Real Time analytics trigger threshold alerts, set chemical spray windows, and balance irrigation pumps.
Spray schedules follow local precipitation forecasts, and irrigation valves adjust to soil moisture levels.
From Reactive Response to Planned Field Operations
With continuous precipitation tracking, agricultural decisions moved from reactive response to planned field work. By the second harvest cycle, the estate had reduced fertilizer waste, removed scouting travel time, and improved yield consistency across weaker blocks.
28%
Lower fertilizer and chemical runoff cost
Fertilizer runs are held before heavy downpours that would wash inputs into waterways.
180+ hrs
Monthly field scouting travel saved
Field assistants no longer ride remote divisions to read gauges.
14%
Increase in marketable yield
Earlier disease prevention from prolonged-moisture alerts.
100%
Audit readiness
Automatic weather compliance logs that cannot be altered.
