Hi all on SOWAC,
I went through the homepage of the smartrain company (http://www.smartrain.com) 
a while ago. The sensor (a combined temperature, soilmoisture and fertility 
sensor) looks very interesting to my as a non-specialist. So I would like to 
hear from some of of you if this sensor is just a tool for the greens on golf 
courses and could apear as a toy for agricultural purposes.
Does the senor measure the EC of the soil and how relayable is it, also the soil 
moisture which is measured by FDR (if I got this right)
Thanks for any comments
