AgroCognitive and Wyld Networks collaborate to pilot satellite IoT solution to collect data in agriculture

There are major challenges in gathering critical data for large areas of crops and orchards in South America due to poor cellular coverage. This data is required to help increase yields and improve sustainability.

Wyld’s affordable satellite IoT offering helps collect the data in these areas of poor cellular coverage. AgroCognitive have identified opportunities to deploy Wyld Connect for its customers in Ecuador and Paraguay and deliver critical new data sources to the AgroCognitive platform.

“Wyld’s innovative satellite IoT connectivity solves the ongoing issue found in the majority of rural South America – connectivity,” says Javier Soto, CEO of AgroCognitive. “We are looking forward to our partnership with Wyld Networks to deploy solutions across multiple customers and bring new data to our platform and new value to our customers.”

“Delivering efficiency and sustainability in remote and challenging environments is massively dependent on low cost, low power wireless connectivity,” said Alastair Williamson, CEO of Wyld Networks. “To meet this challenge, Wyld are delighted to be partnering to deliver sensor-to-satellite data to the excellent AgroCognitive platform.”
