The Datatracer Mushroom Farming Monitoring System has been developed by Avino to prevent potential productivity losses in mushroom production facilities and to manage production processes in accordance with defined standards. The system enables real-time monitoring, recording, and control of temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels.
Mushrooms are saprophytic organisms that convert the energy and protein found in compost into high-quality protein. During this transformation process, environmental temperature, humidity, and ventilation conditions directly affect production success. Especially when temperature and humidity values fall outside standard ranges, mushroom growth slows down, disease risk increases, and significant economic losses may occur.
The Datatracer software allows users to define the required temperature and humidity standards for mushroom production. When predefined threshold values are exceeded, the system instantly notifies the producer, helping to prevent productivity losses and disease formation.
In mushroom cultivation, carbon dioxide concentrations exceeding 2,500 ppm are among the most critical factors negatively affecting mushroom development. With Datatracer, all these key parameters are continuously monitored, recorded, and reported.
Mushroom cultivation in Türkiye has been practiced since the 1960s and expanded rapidly, especially after the 1990s, primarily through family-owned enterprises. Due to low capital requirements and the ability to produce in small areas, more than 80% of mushroom production facilities are smaller than 2,000 m². The most common production model is cultivated mushroom farming.
However, productivity losses in mushroom farming can be substantial. After a long and labor-intensive preparation process, losing an entire production room can result in serious financial damage for businesses.
With well-planned biosecurity measures, correct temperature and humidity conditions, and effective ventilation, these risks can be significantly reduced. The Datatracer Mushroom Farming Monitoring System:
* Measures temperature, humidity, and CO₂ levels via wireless sensors
* Records all data in real time
* Notifies producers via SMS, phone calls, and email in out-of-standard conditions
* Enables early intervention for potential issues
Datatracer is a reliable and professional monitoring system for businesses seeking to ensure production continuity, reduce disease risks, and achieve maximum yield in mushroom production facilities.
