New Poster on FloraPulse! Check it out: https://lnkd.in/gTQHcAmw "FloraPulse sensors provided very plausible time series with a high temporal resolution (20 min).. Overall, FloraPulse sensors seem to be very promising for continuous monitoring of stem water potentials." (Seeger et. al., 2023) Click the link to read more! (This poster is in German)

New article! Check out: A Review of Methods for Data-Driven Irrigation in Modern Agricultural Systems by by Matthew Jenkins & David E. Block [FloraPulse sensors] "have been tested extensively...they were used in Vitis vinifera L. cv. Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon and compared to pressure chamber measurements. Trunk water potential measurements from the microtensiometers generally agreed with seasonal and diurnal patterns of stem water potential measured by a pressure chamber" (Jenkins, Block, 2024)

Our CEO Michael Santiago, PhD in Chile! #AgricultureTech #Microtensiometers #FloraPulse
Thank you to Andres Olivos and OLIVOSriego for the invite to Chile! Having a blast over here. Nice to have a whole event today just to talk about microtensiometers :)

We are now testing in new crops! Corn, hemp, tomatoes, and peppers. So far results are looking good and we will perform pressure bomb comparisons in the coming weeks. Stay tuned! #FloraPulse #Agtech #IrrigationManagment #Futurism #Agriculture

"FloraPulse, the first easy-to-install water sensor that provides accurate and low-cost water-sensing technology, is enhancing the lives of farmers and researchers who want real-time data that will enable them to make the quick, accurate decisions that will benefit their crops."

"The sensor works similarly to other tensiometers but in reduced format within xylem tissue – it equilibrates between a sample of interest and an internal volume of liquid water. Setting it up was easy enough, taking only about 15 minutes per tree" -Ruth-Kristina Magh (Friedrich Schiller University) (https://lnkd.in/g_KzgyfY)
