Get precise, real-time insights into your soil conditions with our advanced IoT sensors. Monitor soil moisture tension, soil temperature, and root-zone oxygen to make data-driven decisions that boost yields and conserve resources.
Transform your farming practices with precise, actionable soil data
Maximize Crop Yields
Optimize growing conditions by understanding exactly what your soil needs. Real-time root-zone moisture and temperature data helps you create the right environment for healthy plant growth.
Precision Water Management
Irrigate only when needed based on actual soil moisture levels at multiple depths. Eliminate overwatering and underwatering, and reduce water costs by applying water exactly when and where it is needed.
Reduce Input Costs
Apply fertilizers and amendments only where and when needed. Root-zone moisture data shows when irrigation water, and the fertilizer in it, drains past the roots, which prevents over-application, saving money and protecting the environment.
Prevent Crop Stress
Receive instant alerts when soil conditions threaten crop health. Catch drought stress, waterlogging, and poor root-zone aeration before they damage your plants.
Complete systems for this application
We connect the sensors to the controller and configure the dashboard and alerts before the system ships.
Soil moisture monitoring station
Soil moisture readings at the root depths you choose, to time irrigation.
What you get
Sensors: Watermark sensors or tensiometers at depths from 16 to 120 cm, soil temperature, and air temperature and humidity.
Controller:
Omni Genesis with a solar panel.
Alerts:
Soil tension crossing your irrigation threshold at each depth.
We connect the sensors to the controller and register them before shipping.
We set up the dashboard and configure the alerts with you in the cloud. You can change them at any time.
The cloud subscription is included, with a cellular SIM on 4G controllers.
After delivery we hold a remote onboarding call. In Israel we also install on site.
Omni Genesis Lite takes one sensor, Omni Genesis four and Omni Exodus six. Expansion adds more. For anything not listed here, tell us what you need to measure and we will put the system together.

Precision Agriculture Guides
In-depth resources to help you build and optimize your soil monitoring system
The Agrinovo soil monitoring system measures soil water tension with Watermark and tensiometer sensors at several depths, soil temperature, and root-zone oxygen, along with air temperature and humidity. The EC of irrigation and fertigation water can be measured on the same system. These measurements help farmers optimize irrigation, fertilization, and overall crop management.
How does precision agriculture reduce water use with soil sensors?
Soil moisture sensors at multiple depths measure actual moisture levels in the root zone. Irrigation runs only when sensor data indicates the soil needs water, and stops when the target level is reached. This eliminates the overwatering and runoff that come from time-based or weather-based irrigation schedules.
How do soil moisture sensors work?
Soil moisture sensors work by measuring the electrical properties of soil, which change based on water content. Capacitance sensors measure the dielectric constant of soil, while tensiometers measure soil water tension directly. The sensors transmit data wirelessly to a cloud platform where farmers can view real-time moisture levels and receive alerts.
What is the ROI of soil monitoring sensors for agriculture?
Soil monitoring delivers ROI through three mechanisms: precision irrigation that reduces water use by applying it only when and where the crop needs it, fertilizer applications guided by measured root-zone data instead of fixed schedules, and prevention of crop losses through early detection of drought stress or overwatering. How quickly it pays back depends on the crop, the water cost, and how the irrigation schedule changes once the data is available.
How deep should soil moisture sensors be installed?
Soil moisture sensors should be installed at multiple depths to monitor the entire root zone. Agrinovo sensors are installed at depths from 16 cm down to 120 cm, chosen for each field. The specific depths depend on crop type, root depth, and soil characteristics. Shallow sensors track surface moisture for irrigation timing, while deeper sensors monitor water availability for roots.
Can I monitor soil nutrient levels in real time with IoT sensors?
Not directly in the soil. Nutrients are followed in the irrigation and fertigation water: an EC probe measures the conductivity of the nutrient solution continuously, and in fresh water ion-selective probes show the trend of ions such as nitrate. Combined with root-zone moisture data, this shows when fertilizer is applied and when it drains past the roots. Soil nutrient levels themselves are still confirmed with lab tests.
What is the best IoT platform for precision agriculture soil monitoring?
The best IoT platform for precision agriculture supports multiple sensor protocols (SDI-12, Modbus, analog, 1-Wire), offers real-time data visualization with customizable alerts, and provides reliable cellular 4G connectivity for remote field locations, with modular controllers that support external modules such as LoRa/LoRaWAN. Look for platforms with historical data analysis, automated irrigation triggers, and API integration with existing farm management software.
