Gallagher Group Limited is excited to announce its exclusive distribution agreement with Gasbot Pty Ltd to introduce a satellite-based liquid monitoring system to the North American market. The Gallagher Satellite Liquid Monitoring system uses Gasbot’s cutting-edge wireless sensor technology to provide timely information on tank liquid levels, enabling farmers to make informed decisions about liquid usage and management. The system uses satellite communications to transmit data from the tanks to the farmer’s cell phone, providing easy access to tank information even in remote or hard-to-reach locations. The system is not limited to water tanks but can also be used for diesel and fuel tanks, liquid fertilizer, dams, and troughs. It also minimizes the need for manual tank readings, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors, by updating the app with the level data up to 4 times daily. The Gallagher Satellite Liquid Monitoring system will be available for purchase through Gallagher’s rural retailer network in North America. The first 12 months of the software service are included with the initial purchase, followed by an annual satellite connectivity subscription fee. Chris van der Loo, Gallagher Global GM Product & Technology, said, “Assurance of water availability is becoming increasingly important for farmers in North America as climate conditions become more unpredictable. Monitoring the resources available on farms needed to care for animals and crops will become more important as we experience the impacts of moving between flood and drought situations very quickly. We are very pleased to be working with Gasbot to offer a satellite liquid monitoring solution to provide peace of mind for farmers across North America regardless of how remote they are”. Phil Livingston, Managing Director from Gasbot added, “Gasbot is committed to helping farmers understand and optimize water use, as well as monitor fuel and liquid fertilizer levels across their farms, efficiently and cost-effectively. These are values that align perfectly with Gallagher’s strategy. We are excited to partner with Gallagher to bring our innovative product to North America. We believe this product will make a real difference to farmers, providing them with the information they need to manage their liquids and sending alerts when resources are low”. Gallagher and Gasbot are excited to work together and support the agriculture industry globally. Stock availability starting June 1, 2023. |
