How can 30MHz help you in digital horticulture?

At 30MHz we are all genuine technology experts. We ensure that our customers and partners have a safe and reliable network at their fingertips. Thanks to our cooperation with horticultural experts such as Delphy, and by frequently testing our new technology in practice at growers, we ensure that we continue to offer horticulturists value. How can you, as a grower, benefit from 30MHz?

Platform

Our data platform is the central point of 30MHz. This software connects sensors, growers, consultants and every other person or organisation concerned. The data platform is easy to use and enables everyone to create charts, tables and other visuals. It’s entirely up to you to decide which data you want to see: temperature, weather forecasts, dew point, etc. This means that you can create your own customised dashboard to obtain a clear picture of what is happening in your greenhouse.

One of the best features of the platform is perhaps the access to expert apps. It lets you use features offered by Delphy and 2Grow, among others. Just like in the appstore on your phone, you select whatever apps are suited your business. You can also select different widgets. The Growing Degree Days widget, for example, makes it possible to keep track of degree hours in real-time. This way, you know exactly when your crop has been exposed to cooler temperatures long enough.

The platform is also a social place. You can share observations with your colleagues or your consultant, for example. Important to remember: your data remains yours. Your precious cultivation information is never shared without your explicit consent.

Sensors

Data has to be obtained somewhere. It goes without saying that sensors are important sources for this. We have developed sensors for various applications in conjunction with several growers. Our sensors are all wireless and can be used immediately upon receipt. These sensors give you a starter pack that you can start using right away:

Pointed Micro Climate sensor

• Measures crop temperature in combination with temperature and humidity
• VPD and dew point are calculated automatically
• Makkelijk verplaatsbaar en beschermd tegen invloeden van buitenaf

Soil moisture sensor

• Measures water volume in potting soil and various types of substrate
• Monitors electrical conductivity
• Sends you a message when the soil becomes too dry

30MHz Gateway

• Central access point for all sensors
• Waterproof access point can connect up to 4,000 sensors
• Ensures a stable network, regardless of the environment

PAR sensor

• Measures the power of natural sunlight
• Specifically designed for use in the horticulture industry
• See PAR in clear graphs

Integrations

30MHz is an open platform. That means that everyone can connect to it; not only every grower, but every business enterprise in the horticulture industry, from suppliers to consultants. It is our mission to bring all the available knowledge together in a single, central platform.

Integrations make sensor data even more valuable. We can connect every climate computer to the platform. Combining climate data with crop data gives you even more information about your crop. This results in concrete insights that you can use to optimise your production process, which is ideal for reducing product loss and saving energy.

‘Combining climate data with crop data allows you to learn even more about your crop. This results in concrete insights that you can use to optimise your production process.’
