Solution overview

GRAS is a personalized smart farming system that allows you to remotely monitor conditions on your farm, in storage facilities, in fields, with livestock, or even in forests using your laptop, computer, or smartphone. You can control agricultural systems remotely or let us fully automate them with the software. GRAS reduces risks in agricultural production through continuous monitoring and automation of agricultural areas. Our systems minimize human effort, save water, electricity, and other resources through precise management, while simultaneously increasing yield and improving profitability. -The systems optimize energy efficiency and save costs -significantly reduce the water used for irrigation - save hours of labor -eliminate the risk of human errors, such as overwatering or drought -the system can respond to sudden environmental changes by activating ventilation or heating systems, opening and closing windows or shades, and controlling anti-freeze systems, even without human presence -And last but not least, farmers can count on more free time for themselves and their families.
