Press Release: e-Mbizo Expands Global IoT Platform to Support Smart Agriculture

Transforming African Agriculture with IoT

PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA — e-Mbizo Solutions today announced the major expansion of its Enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) platform, specifically tailored to support smart agriculture and farming initiatives across the continent.

Precision Farming at Scale

With water scarcity and climate unpredictability posing significant threats to food security, e-Mbizo’s IoT telemetry solutions allow farmers to deploy smart soil moisture sensors, weather stations, and automated irrigation controls. These devices transmit real-time data over e-Mbizo's low-latency wireless networks directly into our cloud analytics engine.

"By providing farmers with granular, real-time insights into their crop health and soil conditions, we are not just increasing yields—we are actively conserving precious water resources," noted Thabo Malebadi, co-founder of e-Mbizo. "Our platform makes precision agriculture accessible to both commercial and emerging farmers."

Connectivity Where It Matters

The IoT expansion is heavily supported by e-Mbizo’s ongoing push to extend carrier-grade wireless and fibre connectivity into rural and deep-rural areas, ensuring that farms previously off the digital grid can now fully participate in the data economy.
