Terminal Agri

$500 per TerminalFirst production run shipping now

An agricultural LoRaWAN node. Three Irrometer Watermark soil-tension channels, soil temperature, and one latching-valve drive — soil tension to valve action, without a cellular bill. Deploy across a field on a battery that lasts about five years.

Sensor Inputs

What goes in the ground.

ChannelCountPurpose
Soil-tension channel3Irrometer Watermark sensors — soil moisture tension in centibars
Soil temperature1Root-zone temperature — irrigation timing
Latching-valve drive1DC latching solenoid — open/close irrigation blocks

Need process instrumentation? Terminal Indi reads 4-20 mA loop sensors for water-quality and industrial process signals. Run an Indi alongside your Agri nodes on the same site.

Connectivity & Power

Right radio for the field.

RadioLoRaWAN, US915
Range5 km open air / 1 km indoor
Battery~5-year life on 4× C cells
CellularNone — no SIM, no carrier fee
Price$500 per Terminal

LoRa is the right radio for long-range, low-power fields — no trenching, no coverage gaps, no monthly carrier bill. Nodes report to a Base Station you own; data never leaves the site.

Use Cases

Where Terminal Agri works.

Deficit irrigation

Three soil-tension readings per node replace guesswork. Watch centibars rise, irrigate to a target, and hold a deficit on purpose — block by block.

Vineyards, orchards, specialty crops

Valve control

Drive a latching solenoid to open and close an irrigation block from the control room. Latching valves hold state without holding power.

One valve drive per Terminal

Root-zone temperature

Soil temperature at every station, alongside soil tension — one more data point for irrigation timing decisions.

Soil temperature per node

Zone dashboards

Organize nodes by field, block, or zone and compare soil tension side by side. Runs on the Irrigation Intelligence Skill on your Base Station.

No cellular bill, no cloud
