$90,000In this project, two research and demonstration sites have been equipped with variablerate sub-surface drip systems, interactive pan, tilt, zoom cameras, temperature, and moisture sensors. The research locations are linked using standard & "Super WiFi" Internet radio systems. At these sites, additional solar photovoltaic systems are being added to determine the best strategies for growers to enhance and power on-farm power sensing systems The information being generated by these systems will soon be available on the NESP AL web-site and linked to the state commodity commissions web-sites.
