Clear boundaries
build trust.
Short answers to the questions a grower, adviser, partner or investor should ask before taking the project seriously.
Does LivingShield diagnose a pest or disease?
No. It shows field signals and asks for verification. Crop diagnosis and treatment decisions remain with the grower and qualified advisers.
Does it replace laboratory soil testing?
No. Probes provide continuous root-zone context. Laboratory testing remains necessary for nutrients, organic matter and other assessment requiring validated analysis.
How many sensors does a farm need?
There is no universal number or distance. Stations are planned by management zone, soil, crop, irrigation and topography after a site survey.
Is the AI already trained?
No predictive model is claimed as live. The first capability is transparent rules and data-quality checks; later models require labelled pilot data and independent testing.
Is this a live pilot product today?
No. This is a pre-pilot concept and product design. The site clearly separates the intended workflow from measured farm outcomes.
Can a partner contact LivingShield through this site?
Not yet. A monitored contact route and legal privacy process must be configured before the site collects personal or farm information.
