Yield Monitoring - Boodskap

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
  • Yield Monitoring involves using IoT technology to measure and analyze crop yield data during harvesting. Boodskap's IoT Platform as a Service (PaaS) offers a comprehensive solution for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing yield data in real-time. This helps farmers optimize planting strategies, improve yield predictions, and enhance overall farm profitability.
  • How Boodskap is Used
  • Boodskap’s IoT platform integrates yield monitors, GPS systems, and various sensors installed on harvesting equipment to collect real-time data on crop yield. The platform’s advanced analytics tools provide actionable insights and detailed reports, helping farmers make informed decisions about their farming practices. The user-friendly dashboard allows farmers to monitor yield data and trends remotely.
  • Devices and Sensors Used Devices:
  • Yield monitors installed on combine harvesters
  • GPS systems for precise location tracking
  • Combine harvesters equipped with IoT connectivity
  • Sensors:
  • Yield Sensors: Measure the quantity of harvested crop.
  • Moisture Sensors: Determine the moisture content of the harvested crop.
  • GPS Sensors: Track the exact location of the harvester to correlate yield data with specific field areas.
  • Weight Sensors: Measure the weight of the harvested crop
  • IoT Protocols Used
  • LoRaWAN: Provides long-range, low-power communication between field sensors and the central IoT platform.
  • Zigbee: Suitable for creating a mesh network of sensors within a localized area.
  • NB-IoT: Ensures reliable connectivity in remote farming areas with limited network infrastructure.
  • MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport): A lightweight messaging protocol for real-time data communication between sensors and the IoT platform.
  • Implementation Example
  • A farmer uses Boodskap’s IoT platform by installing yield monitors, moisture sensors, and GPS systems on their combine harvesters. These devices collect data on the amount of crop harvested, its moisture content, and the exact location of the harvester. This data is transmitted via LoRaWAN to the Boodskap platform, where it is analyzed and visualized on a centralized dashboard. The farmer can monitor yield data in real-time, analyze trends, and make informed decisions on planting strategies and field management.
  • Benefits
  • Optimized Planting Strategies: Detailed yield data helps in understanding field variability, leading to better planting decisions.
  • Improved Yield Predictions: Accurate yield monitoring and analysis improve forecasting and planning.
  • Enhanced Profitability: Informed decisions based on yield data increase overall farm profitability.
  • Resource Efficiency: Helps in optimizing the use of seeds, fertilizers, and other inputs.
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Provides continuous data on yield, allowing for timely interventions and adjustments.
  • By leveraging Boodskap’s IoT platform for yield monitoring, farmers can gain valuable insights into their crop performance, optimize their farming practices, and enhance overall productivity and profitability.
