Micro Technologies has come up with a cost-effective product, Micro Jai Kisan, to remotely manage the motor pumps by using a phone. The device is a small SIM card that is installed between the switch and the electrical water pump.
By a simple phone call from a GSM, STD phone or even by an SMS command, the farmer can turn the pump on or off and also remotely know the status of the pump, Micro Technologies Chairman and Managing Director, P Sekhar, told reporters here.
"We hope this device reaches farmers across the country and helps them multifold," Sekhar said, adding "that the device is a cost-effective solution and the product will soon be available across the country.
