5 Wireless biosensor of "Floratest" family
6 • Conclusion • Development of wireless sensor network for industrial agriculture and environmental monitoring is very complicated task. Implementation of proposed wireless sensor networks to industrial agriculture and environmental protection makes it possible to increase efficiency and quality of end product, spare fertilizers, water and energy resources, timely protect plants of woodlands and parklands from infections and anthropogenic impact. • 2. Application of such wireless sensor networks are considerably wider than only precision farming, ecological monitoring and environmental protection.
