With the help of Adcon's weather monitoring equipment, decreasing temperatures are always under control.

The farmer can define wet temperature low limits (calculated as a function of temperature and relative humidity). Then, when the temperature drops below the predefined thresholds, the software sends an alarm via email or SMS. The farmer can activate frost protection equipment and reduce crop loss to a minimum.

Please note that such information cannot be expected in real time! Adcon radio stations are usually polled every 15 minutes, and the reliability of data communication and timeliness may vary, depending on the quality of your radio link and current weather conditions. Furthermore, GSM providers reserve the right for delaying the deli every of SMS messages. We therefore suggest that you take appropriate measures when setting the wet temperature thresholds.
