DUAL PURPOSE SOIL & AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The dual purpose soil temperature and air temperature sensor is designed to be used for measuring the soil temperature for seeding and later to be used for air temperature inside the convection cap.
The sensor is designed to be inserted under all soil conditions and depth without breaking preventing a temperature bridge and offers multiple use as simple, economic and practical solution for arable farmers.
