Vital Platform at a glance

See what your fields need. Act with confidence.

Vital Agronomics web dashboard satellite map with soil tension readings, sensor pins, and kPa legend

See what's happening across your fields

View live sensor readings on a map and quickly spot which fields need attention—before you walk the field.

Desktop Charts view with soil tension over time, refill and critical thresholds, and green, yellow, and red status bands

Know when to irrigate—and when to wait

Track soil tension against refill and critical thresholds so you can time irrigation based on real field conditions, not a schedule.

Vital Agronomics web dashboard Alerts view listing field alerts, soil tension warnings, and irrigation guidance

Act before stress impacts your crop

Get clear alerts when fields cross critical thresholds—so you know where to increase irrigation and can respond in minutes, not days.

Vital Agronomics rugged telemetry enclosure and solar panel mounted on a pole in a hop field

The system that connects it all

A single, rugged telemetry system that connects soil, plant, and atmospheric sensors —installed in your fields.

Solar-powered and built for the outdoors, each device runs continuously without battery swaps or constant maintenance—so you can set it and forget it.

Measure what matters across your field

See what your soil, crops, and weather are telling you—so you know when to irrigate and how much water to apply.

  • Soil moisture profile probe installed vertically in an exposed soil pit beside roots

    Soil profile probe

    Measure volumetric water content, soil temperature, and more at multiple depths.

  • Apogee Instruments infrared radiometer on a pole mount in an orchard, aimed toward the canopy

    Canopy temperature

    Detect canopy temperature anomalies and water stress before it impacts yield.

  • Handheld soil water potential sensor held above dry field soil with cable

    Soil tension sensors

    Directly measure water availability in the root zone—critical for irrigation management.

  • Direct evapotranspiration sensor with stacked radiation shield and pole mount bracket

    Direct evapotranspiration (ET) sensor

    Direct evapotranspiration (ET) sensors measure how much water your fields actually need, enabling efficient irrigation management.

  • Stem microvariation sensor clamped to a plant stem above the soil in a container field setting

    Stem microvariation sensor

    Maximum Daily Shrinkage (MDS) measures how your plants respond to water demand in real time. By tracking subtle changes in stem diameter throughout the day, it reveals when crops are under stress—so you can irrigate based on actual plant response, not assumptions.

  • All-in-one weather station on a field pole with bird deterrent spikes, solar panel, and logger enclosure

    Weather monitoring station

    Get the full picture of your field conditions in one place. All-in-one weather stations track everything from temperature and humidity to wind and solar radiation—giving you the insights you need to make better irrigation and crop management decisions.
