Industrial IoT for Agriculture
LoRaWAN sensors, gateways and dashboards for Agriculture & agritech — specified, stocked and supported by UK engineers.
Industrial IoT for Agriculture replaces manual rounds, spreadsheets and blind spots with live LoRaWAN telemetry: low-power sensors, resilient gateways and dashboards that flag a problem the hour it happens, not the week after. Indiott specifies, stocks and supports the full stack and ships across the UK from local warehouses.
UK agriculture is made up of around 209,000 farm holdings working roughly 17 million hectares, about 69% of the country's land. The sector is navigating the shift from area payments to environmental land management, tighter water pollution rules and volatile input costs, which is pushing growers and livestock farmers towards data-led decisions. LoRaWAN sensing suits farms because it reaches across fields and outbuildings on low power, giving readings from soil, stores and slurry without wiring or mains at every point.
Industrial IoT for Agriculture: sensors, gateways and dashboards
Built for Arable and livestock farm managers, Agronomists and farm advisers, Agritech and precision-farming providers, Estate and land managers and Dairy and glasshouse growers. Every asset that fails quietly — a pump, a chiller, a cold store, a plant room — is a candidate for a battery LoRaWAN sensor reporting to one dashboard. Typical Industrial IoT for Agriculture deployments include:
- Soil moisture and temperature probes to time irrigation and cut water waste
- Grain store temperature and humidity monitoring to prevent spoilage and rejection
- Slurry and manure store level monitoring to plan compliant spreading windows
- Weather and frost sensing to protect crops and schedule field operations
- Tank and trough level sensors for livestock water and diesel bunds
- Cold store and dairy temperature logging for produce and milk quality
LoRaWAN sensors and gateways for Agriculture & agritech
The Industrial IoT for Agriculture hardware below is UK-stocked and dispatched nationwide. Every device joins the same five-layer stack, so you can start with one gateway and a handful of sensors and scale without re-platforming.
EM500Outdoor environmental sensorRugged EM500 series for outdoor CO2, level, pressure and soil measurement.
TS101Insertion temperature sensorLoRaWAN insertion probe for pipe, tank and process temperature.
EM300Leak / contact / T+RH sensorCompact EM300 series for door, leak, temperature and humidity monitoring.
UR35Industrial cellular routerDual-SIM 4G/5G router for resilient connectivity at remote and mobile sites.
UG67Outdoor LoRaWAN gatewayIP67 outdoor gateway for site-wide coverage across yards, plants and campuses.
UG65Semi-industrial LoRaWAN gateway8-channel indoor gateway backhauling hundreds of LoRaWAN sensors over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular.
Compliance and drivers in Agriculture & agritech
Farmers in England must follow the Farming Rules for Water, formally the Reduction and Prevention of Agricultural Diffuse Pollution (England) Regulations 2018, which require nutrient planning and keep manures and fertilisers away from watercourses, enforced by the Environment Agency. The Environment Act 2021 and Environmental Land Management schemes reward better soil, water and nature outcomes, while Red Tractor assurance sets on-farm standards for many buyers. Monitoring soil, stores and water helps farmers plan applications and hold records for inspection.
Indiott builds the monitoring and evidence layer around those duties: continuous data, threshold alarms that reach the duty engineer by SMS, and timestamped records you can hand to an auditor.

Why Agriculture & agritech teams choose Indiott
Here is why agriculture & agritech operators pick Indiott as their Industrial IoT for Agriculture partner rather than a generic reseller.
UK stock, UK delivery
Milesight, Atop and AquaIoT hardware supplied from the UK, typically dispatched within 14 working days nationwide.
Engineer-led, not box-shifting
An engineer scopes every enquiry and returns a costed bill of materials within one working day.
One stack, many brands
Interoperable sense, connect, secure, control and manage layers, so you are never locked to a single vendor.
Bespoke when off-the-shelf ends
When the device you need does not exist, we design and build it — firmware, enclosure and integration.
Industrial IoT for Agriculture: frequently asked questions
Will LoRaWAN sensors reach across a large farm?
Usually yes. LoRaWAN is a long-range radio designed for low-power devices, so one gateway on a barn or grain store can often cover fields and outbuildings for several kilometres, depending on terrain. Extra gateways fill gaps on larger or hilly holdings.
How does monitoring help with the Farming Rules for Water?
Soil, weather and store sensors give dated readings that support nutrient planning and show applications were made in suitable conditions. That evidence helps demonstrate reasonable precautions if the Environment Agency inspects the farm.
Do the sensors need a subscription or a technician to run?
Devices are battery powered and report to a dashboard you can read from a phone or office computer. Batteries typically last years, and alerts can be set so you are told about a problem rather than having to check readings manually.
