A solar tree for farming applications
The Internet of Things (IOT)- made it possible for solar tree-- making use of 35 solar PV panels with a 330 Wp ability each-- is particularly helpful for the agricultural neighborhood in giving electrical energy for high-capacity water pumps, e-tractors as well as e-power tillers. It can likewise enable precision agriculture via IoT-enabled attributes such as real-time moisture, wind speed, rainfall forecast and dirt health surveillance.
