Irrigation Monitoring Node — WiseConn RF-M1

Before you automate, you need to see what is happening in the field. The RF-M1 monitoring node reads soil moisture and field conditions and sends the data into DropControl, so your irrigation decisions are based on data, not guesswork. It is the simplest way to start with WiseConn and scale later.

What the RF-M1 does

The RF-M1 monitors soil moisture and field conditions and sends that data into the DropControl web platform and mobile app. You see what the soil and the field are actually doing, in real time, from anywhere, so your irrigation decisions are based on data.

Who it is for

It is built for growers who want visibility first: understand the field, water more precisely, and add automated control later without changing platforms.

Key capabilities

  • Soil moisture and environmental monitoring across the field.
  • Integrates third-party probes and weather stations (Sentek, Meter/Teros, CropX, Davis, iMetOS and others).
  • Real-time data in the DropControl web and mobile app.
  • Rugged, outdoor-ready unit.

What it means for your operation

With real data instead of a fixed calendar, growers typically reduce water use by 20 to 40 percent, and you build the baseline you need before automating.

Part of the WiseConn system

Every WiseConn device works with the DropControl platform and connects wirelessly, so you manage everything from one web dashboard and mobile app. It also works with the sensors and equipment you already have, on an open architecture that does not lock you into a single vendor, and you can start with one piece and scale to full automation at your own pace.

Why growers choose WiseConn

More than 3,000 growers use DropControl every day to manage irrigation across thousands of fields around the world, on top of the systems and sensors they already run.
