Meet the Kernel6: Precision Field Data, Simplified

Meet the newest solution in the ConnectedCrops suite, the Kernel6 Agriculture Station from ConnectedCrops. Designed for real-world farming, Kernel6 delivers accurate soil and air temperature data directly to your phone in real time—so you can respond faster to changing field conditions.

Powered to last the entire growing season, the Kernel6’s fully battery-powered design removes the worry about solar panel orientation, shading, or seasonal sun angles. This means faster, simpler installation and more flexibility in where you place the station.

Its compact, low-profile design allows you to mount the Kernel6 directly within your crop canopy, reducing the risk of damage from sprayers, tractors, and harvest equipment and allowing sensor placement where your crop actually grows, providing more accurate, actionable data.

Powered to last the entire growing season, Kernel6 supports flexible sensor configurations, including soil moisture, soil temperature, soil EC, and air temperature. With more sensor options on the way, it’s a system that grows with your operation.

Trusted by vineyards, fruit, and berry growers, Kernel6 helps you:

  • Optimize irrigation timing
  • Protect crops from frost events
  • Improve crop consistency and yield with better data

No solar panel. No guesswork on placement. Just reliable data—where it matters most.

Technology holds the key as Canadian farmers gear up to help feed a hungry world

High-tech is not typically a term associated with agriculture. At first glance, there appears to be little connection between fields of gently waving wheat or herds of peacefully grazing cattle. But behind these idyllic scenes on farms across Canada is cutting-edge technology that is revolutionizing the way food is produced and processed.

Advanced Technology For Growers To Monitor Soil & Climate Conditions

Kernel6
Agriculture Station

Kernel6 Agriculture Station

The Kernel6 Agriculture Station is a small form-factor, battery-operated solution with two sensor ports. The small form factor offers more flexibility in where you place the station and better protection from damage caused by passing field equipment. The two sensor ports can accommodate any combination of soil sensor (soil moisture/soil temperature, soil electrical conductivity) and air temperature sensor and can be changed during the growing season, allowing you to monitor:

  • soil moisture/temperature/electrical conductivity at different depths
  • air temperature at different heights
  • soil characteristics and air temperature from a single station

Model5
Agriculture Solution

The Model5 Agriculture Station is a solar-powered station with four sensor ports. Once installed, the solar panel allows the station to provide soil and air data 365/year without the need for maintenance. The four sensor ports can accommodate any combination of soil moisture, soil temperature, or air temperature sensors, allowing growers to monitor:

  • soil moisture at different depths for irrigation planning
  • air temperature at different heights to detect temperature inversions
  • soil moisture, soil temperature, and air temperature from a single station

“It’s hard to know what’s going on below the ground. When you’re driving around looking at different blocks and saying, ‘Oh, that’s good enough on water,’ that isn’t always the best way to go about it. But if you have probes in the ground, you have something to look at on your phone” … J. Rawley (Growing Produce, March 2025)
