Overview

HEMS aim to empower farmers by providing them with insights for a more sustainable and responsible use of herbicides.  HEMS proposes a low-cost, and easy-to-adopt internet of things (IoT) system that can accompany farmers from the pre-planning of their herbicide applications, through to the final phases of efficacy evaluation. HEMS aggregates various high-quality sensor data (soil moisture content, water volumetric content, temperature, soil humidity, etc.) from different devices and manufactures. Based on data analytics, HEMS will differentiate between herbicide resistance and poor product efficacy related to unfavourable environmental conditions. HEMS pilot is deployed in Luxembourg and the Grand-Est region of France.
