Farming may be one of the oldest professions; however, it’s one that’s adapted well to the 21st century via smart agriculture or smart farming. Smart agriculture integrates technology and data solutions with farm work to help make farming operations more efficient and help maximize yield.

If you’re thinking about taking your land the high-technology route, contact the team at BearCom and put our 40+ years of experience in communications solutions to work for you.

Monitor Crops, Livestock, Facilities, and More With Smart Farming

When your farm spans acres of land, you need a simple solution that allows you to monitor everything effectively. This is where video surveillance solutions from Avigilon can come in handy. These CCTV and outdoor cameras provide a wide range of coverage with limited blind spots, so that you can better improve security and safety.

Some of our favorite outdoor Avigilon outdoor dome cameras include the following:

  • 5.0L-H4A-DO1-B
  • 3.0C-H4A-DP1-B HD

In addition to providing security, video surveillance solutions also record footage. You can easily review it to identify how a sly fox is getting to your chickens or if a rabbit is nibbling on your crops.

With Avigilon Appearance Search™, you don’t need to sift through the footage yourself. Simply prompt the artificial intelligence search engine with what you want to identify and it’ll automatically sort through hours of video for you.

Help Employees Stay Connected Across Acres

When one of your employees sees a cow giving birth, they need a strong signal to call for help. The same is true in the case of an injury, when someone is operating farming equipment. Cell phones can work, but they require you to press several buttons to make a call—and sometimes, the signal can be a bit spotty.

In these instances, two-way radios from Motorola Solutions can be a quick and dependable way to help everyone stay in touch when it’s the most important. BearCom carries a complete line of quality two-way radios, like the CP100.

Improve Signal With BDA/DAS Solutions

BearCom offers end-to-end bi-directional amplifier (BDA) and Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) to help you extend the range of your communications devices on your farm. On their own, two-way radios have a limited range. However, BDA/DAS solutions are signal boosters that can help expand that range to the entirety of the farm as well as reducing dead zones.

There are two different kinds of BDAs—a signal booster for cellular devices and one for two-way radios. Talk to the team at BearCom about the kinds of communications systems your team uses. We can help you identify the right BDA options for you.
