I think it is a remarkable idea. My team is working at a new Open Hardware and Software project regarding monitoring systems to make professional solutions available at low costs. It means that anyone can realize in full autonomy the systems, as well as to request for "realization and furniture" of DIY Kits service, for those configurations available at the website of the project (www.acronet.cc). Moreover, since installation and maintenance are in charge to end users (with no constraints with us), the project could represent a sort of flywheel for micro scale economies, with particular reference to DCs. Our idea is to develop new configurations specifically dedicated to the agriculture domain. Hope it sounds good.
