Virtual Seminar: Using Decagon Moisture Sensors for the Precision Irrigation of Soilless Substrates
Join guest speakers John Lea-Cox and Félix Arguedas-Rodriguez from the University of Maryland as they present results from their research. The goal of their research is to precisely measure real-time volumetric water content and soil matric potential in a range of soilless substrates, which are commonly used in the nursery and greenhouse industry.
The research team at the University of Maryland has set up Decagon sensor networks in soil nursery production systems, as well as a pot-in-pot (large container) production nursery. They will share tips for establishing networks in the field, and examine some real-time data from those systems, including environmental data. If you are interested in using Decagon soil moisture sensors in soilless substrate, or simply interested in alternative applications for soil moisture sensors, we welcome your participation in this virtual seminar.
