This in and of itself is very exciting.

If such devices can be shared between farmers; and their development costs be aggregated by using open sourcing – then even better.

We are involved in the development of a low cost 900Mhz telemetry solution for farmers – utilising open systems and interfaces. If there is an appetite to help share the cost of our development (nearly at a beta phase), then feel free to get in touch.
