Abstract
A system for remote monitoring of plants is provided. The system includes (a) at least one sensor positioned on, or in proximity to, a plant, the at least one sensor being for collecting data pertaining to at least one plant related parameter; (b) at least one user client being for receiving and optionally processing the data from the at least one sensor to thereby determine a state of the plant; and (c) a communication network being for communicating the data from the at least one sensor to the at least one user client.
Claims10
A method of remote monitoring of a field grown crop, the method comprising:
- (a) collecting on-site data pertaining to at least one plant derived parameter selected from the group consisting of a leaf temperature, a flower temperature, a fruit surface temperature, a stem flux relative rate, a stem diameter variation, a fruit growth rate and a leaf CO2 exchange;
- (b) relaying said data to a remote user client via a communication network;
- and
- (c) processing said data to thereby determine a state of the crop.
A method of remote monitoring of a greenhouse grown crop, the method comprising:
- (a) collecting on-site data pertaining to at least one plant derived parameter selected from the group consisting of a leaf temperature, a flower temperature, a fruit surface temperature, a stem flux relative rate, a stem diameter variation, a fruit growth rate and a leaf CO2 exchange;
- (b) relaying said data to a remote user client via a communication network;
- and
- (c) processing said data to thereby determine a state of the greenhouse grown crop.
