California avocado farmer Kurt Bantle decided to experiment with Internet of Things (IoT) connected technology to see if costly water consumption could be reduced in growing his 900 avocado trees.
He divided his farm into 22 irrigation blocks and inserted two soil moisture measurement units into each block. All soil moisture data is collected from the avocado trees into a cloud, and when a tree needs to be watered, the solution turns the sprinklers on automatically.
