Episode 56 - The Internet Of Things Part 2

from The Natural Curiosity Project · host Dr. Steven Shepard

The Earth's most precious resource is water--yet we waste a HUGE percentage of it because of leaks in municipal water systems, inaccurate agricultural watering practices, and other practices. In fact, 60% of the water pumped out of the ground worldwide for agriculture never reaches the plants. Yet Deep Sky Vineyard, a tiny (by agricultural standards)vineyard, in the dry heat of Arizona, saved more than 1.5 million gallons in 2018 alone, because of sophisticated field monitoring practices, thanks to the technology created by nioLabs. In this episode we show how they did it. It's quite a story. This is part two of a three-part series.
