Irrifarm's Smart-box for remote management

Irrifarm is a complete system for the remote management of irrigation thanks to which it is possible to monitor field valves and fertilization, measure field and climatic data, monitor irrigation and plan agronomic techniques. The series of professional equipment is found in a single box that is 3 meters long, 2 meters wide and 2.70 meters high.

"This modular system is ideal for all crops, as it enables the management of small businesses as well as hundreds of hectares. Automation makes everything more efficient - just think of the resources that can be saved by managing the main routine activities remotely which once required operators. All this leads to considerable improvements when it comes to time management, logistics and environmental impact," reports Bernardo Grieco, CEO at Pan Agri in Scanzano Jonico (Matera), a company boasting thirty years of experience in the automated irrigation sector. 

Inside the smart-box 

"The idea of a single system featuring all the tools necessary to manage irrigation - the dosing of nutrient solutions and field sensors - and providing data that can be easily viewed on our App has finally become a reality. The smart-box is installed on a cement platform with an 'in and out' system. Entrepreneurs can manage their company remotely, anytime and anywhere. Various smart boxes will be delivered over the next couple of weeks for strawberries, citrus fruit and table grapes as well as for soilless crops and other fruit plants."   

"The system is manufactured, assembled and certified directly in our facility in Scanzano Jonico and is installed in 72 hours, so companies can continue their activities. The smart box is being very successful not only due to the various functions described, but also thanks to its contained cost. A few thousand hectares are already being managed with Irrifarm in Apulia and Basilicata, but it is thanks to the agreement with Netafim, an Israeli multinational leading in the irrigation sector, that we manage to distribute it all over Italy under the Netafarm brand."

"The App - also developed by Panagri laboratories - and the entire system are very intuitive, so they can be used both by people with experience in the field but also by those who are not tech-savvy." 

"An online configurator is available on our new website (click here) to virtually create your system based on the characteristics of your company. It is possible to choose all the various machines and sensors as well as the quantity and type, and even ask for a personalized quote."
