NADI Smart Solar Pump: An Example of IoT for Good.
The on-going , is the live example of this collaboration. It enables farmers to step up productivity and lower costs while offering a more sustainable alternative to an inefficient power grid or diesel-dependent water pumps for irrigation. Going into details, the five-horsepower model can deliver 100,000 liters of water a day, enabling farmers to manage and maintain groundwater resources thoroughly and irrigate over 5 acres of land throughout the year for higher crop yields – all with the control from their mobile phone. With smart and connected irrigation, the farmers can adequately regulate groundwater resources and leverage the seasons to produce up to 3 crops a year, heading to added income.
Stanley Black & Decker demonstrates what an innovative company can achieve by combining its products with connectivity to have positive and sustainable impact productivity and income of farmers. As an operator, we are delighted to help them leverage the connectivity and coverage to meet the needs of the local market and their project.
