four zones · every greenhouse measured.
An export greenhouse has four fronts: interior climate (T+RH+CO₂), CO₂ supplementation, soil-moisture irrigation, CFE energy + generator. AstreaIoT covers all four with the same dashboard.
interior climate · T + RH + CO₂
Per-greenhouse temperature + relative humidity + CO₂ sensor (multi-parameter climate sensor). Immediate alerts: RH >85% = fungus risk, CO₂ <400 ppm = limited photosynthesis, T out of range = plant stress. Your team adjusts ventilation, curtains and heating with data.
CO₂ supplementation
Continuous CO₂ sensor · alert when it drops below the range you set for photosynthesis hours (for example 800-1200 ppm), so your team injects. You also see when CO₂ is injected with the vents open.
irrigation · real soil moisture
Per-zone soil moisture + temperature + EC sensor (soil moisture sensor). Alert to irrigate by real moisture (not by timer or intuition). Irrigation record with data for CONAGUA.
energy + generator
Main-panel meter + per-greenhouse sub-metering · power factor for the CFE GDMTO tariff. Generator with current meter + generator-room temperature sensor. You know whether heating and pumps are running.
Out of scope: open-field precision agriculture, agricultural drones, specific foliar nutrition. AstreaIoT covers FACILITIES (greenhouse climate, cisterns, irrigation system, fertigation, generator).
what we protect · what we prevent.
- +Interior climate watched continuously · your team adjusts ventilation, curtains and heating with data
- +CO₂ measured during photosynthesis hours · alert when it drops so your team injects
- +Irrigation by real soil moisture · water where it is needed
- +Export-buyer/USDA audit backed with continuous data · export protected
- +Generator watched · you know whether heating and pumps keep running in an outage
- ✕Crop fungus from undetected humidity >85% · lost harvest
- ✕Low CO₂ limits photosynthesis · invisible suboptimal yield
- ✕Timer irrigation · wasted water + undetected hydric stress
- ✕Exporter audit with observations · rejected lot · buyer contract at risk
- ✕Generator off in blackout · heating down · crop in thermal stress
eight use cases · four critical areas.
for the agronomist / grower.
Agronomist + Greenhouse Grower. Two cases · humidity >85% causes crop fungus, CO₂ <400 ppm limits photosynthesis. Crop watched continuously.
for the irrigation lead.
Irrigation Lead + Fertigation Lead. Two cases · intuition/timer irrigation (wasted water), fertigation cistern empties without warning. Data-driven irrigation, with a record for CONAGUA.
for the maintenance lead.
Maintenance Lead + Energy Lead. Two cases · generator off during blackout (heating drops), electrical spending without per-greenhouse breakdown. Operational continuity + granular budget.
for the commercial director · export.
Commercial Director + Export Quality Lead. Two cases · export-buyer audit without a continuous record of conditions, the irrigation cistern runs empty without alert. Export protected with continuous data.
three compliances · one platform covers all three.
For operators with several greenhouses (in Sinaloa-Sonora or Michoacán), a scored comparison across greenhouses.
from sensor to report · every few minutes · without human intervention
Five steps. They run in parallel across all your sites, all the time. When something crosses a threshold, the flow completes in under five minutes — alert delivered, response logged, inspector-ready evidence captured.
measure
Sensors measure temperature, humidity, current, door-open, leak and other magnitudes every few minutes — no operator required.
detect
The system compares each reading against the threshold configured per recipe · per site · per equipment. Threshold crossing triggers the flow.
alert
The alert routes to the right person via WhatsApp, email or push · per role and schedule configured.
respond
The operator acts from the dashboard or mobile app. The corrective action goes into a timestamped log with signature, which can’t be edited.
audit
Everything becomes part of the audit package · time series, critical events, corrective actions, NOM report ready in two clicks.
Five steps · no manual operators · no paperwork · no gaps.
five phases · per greenhouse.
site survey
1-2 daysTechnical visit + inventory of greenhouses, irrigation/fertigation system, CO₂ supplementation, cisterns, generator · per-greenhouse plan.
physical installation
2–7 days per sitemulti-parameter climate sensor + T+H per greenhouse + per-zone soil moisture sensor soil + cistern level + main-panel meter + generator + gateway with backup · no crop interruption.
configuration + calibration
1-2 daysPer-crop thresholds (berries differ from tomato) · WhatsApp alerts · record ready for the buyer audit · per-role alerts.
team training
1 dayAgronomist + Grower + Irrigation Lead + Maintenance + Commercial Director · each role trains on their flow.
30 days of support + first harvest cycle
30 daysAstreaIoT specialist available · first monthly report delivered · first exporter audit backed with data.
For greenhouse clusters (Sinaloa berries with export marketers, Michoacán avocado-berries), per-site deployment with monthly waves.
common questions · before the quote.
does it integrate with existing irrigation systems (Netafim, Rain Bird, Hunter)?
Yes · through the integration with your systems with commercial irrigation/fertigation systems. Compatible with Netafim NetBeat, Rain Bird IQ, Hunter Centralus + proprietary Mexican systems. Soil moisture sensors feed into the central system.
does CO₂ supplementation require additional infrastructure?
Yes, yours: CO₂ tank + distribution lines. AstreaIoT does not control injection: it measures CO₂ continuously and alerts you when it drops during photosynthesis hours; your team injects.
what if the greenhouse zone lacks LoRaWAN coverage?
We install a gateway on site. For remote greenhouses without their own network, a cellular or solar gateway is available on request, as a project.
does it comply with good agricultural practices (GAP, GlobalG.A.P.)?
It gives you the continuous, time-stamped climate and irrigation record that GAP, GlobalG.A.P., USDA and the buyer ask for, exportable. It is not a certification format: the certification is yours.
does it integrate with the greenhouse admin system?
Yes · through the integration with your systems. Climate + irrigation + harvest data arrives at central system. It connects to your administrative system; sized in the assessment.
is it billed per greenhouse or per hectare?
Flexible model · typical per-greenhouse subscription (1 sensor cluster per greenhouse) or per-hectare for large operations. Tiered pricing (basic = climate; premium = climate + irrigation + CO₂ + sub-metering).
does the soil sensor work with substrates (coco, perlite)?
Yes · soil moisture sensor works with natural soil, coco substrate, perlite, rock wool. Initial per-substrate calibration · threshold alerts configurable per crop + substrate.
