    Smart farming begins

    It started with standard sensors. They proved inefficient, so the system moved to industrial-grade sensors and a test run.

  2. April 2020

    Out on the farms

    Visits to farms in Johor, Kelantan, Cameron Highlands and beyond, to collect data and analyse problems.

  3. October 2020

    A remote monitoring sensor

    Developed for farmers, with its first test run at Mantin Farm (R&D).

  4. April 2021

    Installed at JF Farm, Gua Musang

    After a three-month test at Mantin Farm, the official system went in at JF Farm, Gua Musang, across 1,000 polybags.

  5. October 2021

    The first system sold

    After a nine-month test at Gua Musang, the first system was sold to Kolej Vokasional Pasir Puteh, and a system was installed at Lagenda Digital Farm.

  6. April 2022

    Presented to Jabatan Pertanian

    Presentations to Jabatan Pertanian in Perak, Serdang and Putrajaya, an installation at TKPM Lekir, Perak, and user training.

Our story

Built to work beyond the presentation.

JP Global Engineering was established in 2013 with a practical belief: engineering should solve real problems in real operating environments.

From engineering and renewable energy to smart agriculture, automation and technology integration, our work moves from concept to implementation — and continues after deployment.
