Furthermore, the application of technology aimed at a Agriculture 4.0 to control the parameters that condition crops such as climatology, soil composition and water needs They are, in times like these, a great solution.
From EDYPRO We've compiled a list of tools that we think you might find useful.

But it's not just that; it's also the vehicle for channeling all the information we can measure through Industry 4.0 technology and for using related applications.
2.-WhatsApp. It's one of the best tools for making free video calls with anyone, anywhere.
3.- Telegram.One of its major advantages over WhatsApp is that it allows sending files of a much larger size, as it's possible to share files up to 1.5 gigabytes. This is an important feature when working in teams or when people are geographically dispersed.
4. To conduct video conferences with our clients, advisors, or farmers, either individually or in groups, there are applications such as Skype o hangouts .
5.- Google G Suite. It is one of the best known and most popular platforms for teleworking worldwide, as it allows the use of documents and presentations that may be sufficient for small businesses, and which is currently being expanded free of charge due to the coronavirus.
5.-Microsoft Office 365. It's one of the most widely used work tools worldwide and has offered collaborative work features for some time now. OneDrive provides a large amount of cloud storage, allowing you to create folders that are only accessible to specific team members.
