Plants communicate internally using electrical, mechanical and chemical signals. They respond to external changes with characteristic electrical wave patterns. By continuously monitoring selected plants in each field, which is normally about 8 plants per hectare, throughout the crop cycle, our technology provides real-time data on crop health, early detection of crop stress and insights into responses to crop treatments, allowing you to respond effectively to plants’ needs. Using innovative electronics and AI, Vivent Biosensors detects abiotic stresses, like drought and nutrient deficits, and in some crops, biotic stresses, such as nematodes and aphids. Vivent Biosignals crop health metrics integrate with decision support tools, enabling growers to optimise conditions quickly and providing real-time evidence of crop treatment efficacy. This leads to increased yields and environmentally preferable crop protection.
At Vivent Biosignals, we listen to the feedback from plants and convert it into actionable solutions. See our latest work in biological crop treatments and biostimulants below. These examples highlight the effectiveness of our approach, building trust through proven results.
Insights into the impact on plant physiology, product efficacy testing and the effects of different application times and methods.
CHV partnered with Vivent Biosignals to monitor crop health in real-time, using Croptimum on peppers and mandarins via drip irrigation systems.

“The plant alerts are perfect. I can see exactly when stress is occurring, and we are exploring ways to minimize the impact of these hours. This has opened new horizons in the management of our crop.”
Andras Szabo, Head Grower – Zeiler
“We were surprised and delighted by these results. Plant electrophysiology can effectively distinguish those plants where the PDI (plant defense inducers) has been effective. We are very interested to see how this technology can help both in our research efforts and on the farm.”
Dr Sybille Lamprecht, Lab Leader – Bayer Crop Science
“For this study, strawberry plants were infected by thrips, the contamination of which could be detected after only 2 days with an electrophysical sensor. This means a significant time saving compared with visual inspection.”
Wageningen University Research
“Thank you Vivent Biosignals team for being such an amazing partner and for providing your cutting-edge biosignal technology! It made a huge difference in helping us understand plant stress responses and was a key part of this research.”
