Leveraging Decentlab Sensors for Vineyard Management
/Producing fine wines requires not only craftsmanship but also the right environment for the vines to thrive. Pfalzwerke has integrated Decentlab sensors into its customers' vineyards and produced an informative video report about it.
Decentlab's cost-efficient and energy-efficient sensors, such as the DL-LWS Leaf Wetness Sensor for LoRaWAN, the DL-LP8P CO₂, Temperature, Humidity and Barometric Pressure Sensor for LoRaWAN and the DL-SMTP Soil Moisture and Temperature Profile for LoRaWAN, capture important environmental data like temperature, soil moisture, air humidity, and air pressure.
The DL-LWS sensor is designed to mimic the behavior of a real leaf, allowing moisture to condense and evaporate as it would on a natural leaf surface. It detects leaf wetness using a capacitive measurement principle. All this information is highly advantageous for winemakers, as it allows for prediction when the onset of certain diseases or infections may occur.
