HandySenseSmart Agriculture Innovationfor Thai Farmers

HandySense is a smart agricultural innovation developed to modernize and enhance the efficiency of Thai agriculture. By utilizing sensor technology and the Internet of Things (IoT), it allows farmers to easily monitor and control farm environments such as soil moisture, temperature, and weather through their smartphones. This system not only conserves water and energy resources but also effectively increases productivity and reduces costs.

HandySense is supported by the Program Management Unit for Human Resources and Institutional Development, Research, and Innovation (PMU-B) and NECTEC to ensure food security and promote sustainable agricultural development. Currently, the project has expanded to over 200 farms nationwide, enabling farmers to apply this technology in their areas. There are also plans to develop youth coding skills to support the future growth of the agricultural sector.

HandySense not only boosts farmers' income but also creates new career opportunities, such as smart agriculture system developers, and improves the quality of life for farmers, enabling them to work efficiently and sustainably.
