Meet Mothive Ladybird
Mothive Ladybird empowers farmers with a simple, affordable and turnkey solution that de-risks their operations and extracts more value from the crop. The device predicts and informs farmers about the right time to harvest and related logistics, predict diseases and improve yields, and automates farm tasks based on real-time crop needs.

Monitor
Devices installed next to the plants collect environmental and soil data.

Predict
Bespoke Machine Learning models predict crop growth conditions, diseases and crop harvest.

Track
Recommendations and alerts delivered via dashboard, SMS, email. Live & historical data.

Automate
Intelligent automation (irrigation & ventilation). Specific tasks delivered to robots in the future.

FAQ
Yes, they are as tough as it gets! They’re specially designed to withstand UV, water and dust.
You’re most likely trying to install it in a bunker! This means the Ladybird is not able to wirelessly communicate with the Mothive gateway. Please find another location for the device and perform the power-on procedure again.
Yes, you surely can. Please contact us at support@mothive.com.
This service will be available in Q2 2019.
If you’re growing food inside poly-tunnels then our recommendation is 2 devices per poly-tunnel - one close to the door and another in the middle of the tunnel.
For outdoor applications and prior to any installation, we recommend a free assessment of the farm by our scientific team to minimise the number of devices required and thus reduce the costs for you. However, the guideline is that areas of the farm with different elevation, soil type, water availability and disease resistance require at least 2 devices.
Our devices use normal AA batteries. You may find them in normal supermarket, electronics stores or even online.
Yes, you have total access to the raw data collected from the field. You can easily download it from our dashboard.
Our Ladybirds currently support two soil sensors: Decagon EC-5 and Delta-T SM150T. For other sensors, please contact us at support@mothive.com.
