Whether it’s monitoring soil health, tracking animal welfare, automating irrigation, or managing energy use in barns and greenhouses, our LoRaWAN® and cellular IoT solutions give farmers the visibility and control they need to optimize every aspect of their farm. With scalable, reliable, and low-maintenance devices, We empower integrated farms to increase yields, improve efficiency, and build resilience against environmental and market pressures.

Controlled Environment

Agriculture (CEA)

We empower greenhouses, vertical farms, and other controlled-environment agriculture facilities with IoT connectivity that ensures optimal growing conditions year-round. Our LoRaWAN® and cellular IoT solutions connect sensors for temperature, humidity, CO₂, lighting, irrigation, and energy use, delivering real-time insights to fine-tune growing environments.

With scalable, low-maintenance devices, We help CEA operators maximize yields, reduce resource consumption, and maintain consistent quality; all while lowering operational costs and ensuring sustainability.

Support Services

Agriculture

We enable ag service providers; from cooperatives and agronomists to equipment dealers and crop consultants;  to deliver smarter, data-driven solutions to their customers. Our LoRaWAN® and cellular IoT devices support soil testing, remote equipment monitoring, fleet management, and precision application services, helping service providers scale their offerings and deliver greater value to growers. By integrating IoT connectivity into field operations and advisory services.

We empower support organizations to drive efficiency, strengthen customer relationships, and lead the transition to digital agriculture.

Agriculture Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

How can IoT improve farming efficiency and crop yields?

IoT solutions in agriculture provide data on soil moisture, weather, livestock, and equipment health. Using connected sensors and LoRaWAN® networks, farmers can optimize irrigation, reduce waste, and increase crop yields — while lowering labor costs.

Why is LoRaWAN better than Wi-Fi or Bluetooth for smart farming?

LoRaWAN® enables long-range, low-power, outdoor connectivity, making it ideal for large farms where Wi-Fi and Bluetooth fail. It connects thousands of devices across miles, with multi-year battery life, ensuring reliable precision agriculture monitoring.

What agricultural challenges can IoT sensors solve?

IoT sensors support farmers by managing:

  • Soil moisture & irrigation → up to 30% water savings
  • Weather & climate monitoring → protect crops from frost/drought
  • Livestock health tracking → early illness detection
  • Equipment monitoring → prevent costly breakdowns
  • Crop storage monitoring → preserve grain quality
How does cellular IoT benefit agricultural operations?

Cellular IoT delivers secure, wide-area coverage for farms without LoRaWAN networks. It’s valuable for remote monitoring of connected tractors, high-value assets, or cold chain logistics. Cellular IoT integrates with farm platforms for data-driven decision-making at scale.

What is the ROI of IoT deployments in agriculture?

Most farms achieve ROI in 12–24 months.
Benefits include:

  • 10–30% savings on water/fertilizer
  • Reduced downtime
  • Higher yields via precision farming
  • Improved livestock health
  • Lower energy costs in irrigation and cold storage
Are IoT solutions secure enough for agricultural data?

Yes. LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT use AES-128 encryption to protect sensitive farm data. Modern IoT platforms add role-based access and integration with enterprise IT security policies for complete security.

How difficult is it to install IoT sensors on a farm?

Most IoT ag sensors are wireless, battery-powered, and simple to install without technicians. Soil probes, weather stations, and clamp-on monitors can be deployed in minutes. A few LoRaWAN gateways provide coverage across thousands of acres.

Can IoT help reduce environmental impact and support sustainability goals?

Absolutely. IoT-enabled agriculture reduces over-irrigation, chemical overuse, and wasted energy, helping farms meet sustainability and carbon footprint goals. It also supports compliance with government sustainability programs and green farming incentives.

How do IoT platforms integrate with existing farm management systems?

IoT solutions use open APIs and cloud integration, meaning sensor data flows directly into farm management software, ERP systems, or sustainability dashboards, creating a single source of truth for smarter decisions.

Who manages IoT deployments in agriculture — the farmer, IT, or service providers?

It depends on farm size:

  • Small/medium farms → often self-manage with user-friendly dashboards
  • Large operations → rely on system integrators and ag-tech providers for deployment and support

MultiTech’s channel partners make adoption simple, scalable, and affordable.
