AGRICONTERRA
More than a tracker. A new standard.
Agriconterra redefines the concept of an agrivoltaic structure.
Designed to integrate with tall or specialist crops, it's built to elevate agricultural and energy efficiency, without compromise.
*Contact Italia Designs and produces mounting structures. It does not manage land or enter into surface rights agreements.
Every detail is designed to last.
Every function, to adapt to you.

The Agriconterra engine ensures high torque transmission and an IP65 degree of protection, ideal for difficult environments.
Self-powered by a dedicated photovoltaic module, it ensures a tracking accuracy of 0.1° and is designed to operate in a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C, making it reliable even in extreme environmental conditions.
The control logic, installed directly on the tracker, communicates with the ZigBee IEEE 802.15.4 protocol with the controller, which includes wind, snow and other customisable sensors.
The Agriconterra control logic allows backtracking using the geolocation of each individual tracker panel. This system optimises the positioning of the solar panels, improving tracking efficiency and ensuring precise alignment with the sun's position to maximise energy production.
Agriconterra bearings offer greater mechanical resistance and reduced dimensions. Made from a glass-matrix polymer material, they are self-lubricating, easy to install, and ensure smooth rotation with minimal maintenance.
Every project is unique.
This is why the length of the structure is completely customisable.
You bring the vision. We help you realise it.

Vertical extraction test
These pull-out tests are used to determine the pull-out stress in the unit of time, ensuring the robustness of ground-mounted photovoltaic systems, analysing the ground and ensuring long-term stability and efficiency.
Horizontal load test
These pull-out tests are used to determine the lateral resistance in the unit time, ensuring the robustness of ground-mounted photovoltaic systems by analysing the ground and ensuring long-term stability and efficiency.
Agriconterra was tested during the design phase to guarantee its quality, reliability, and durability. Furthermore, for every system, Contact Italia performs dedicated pullout tests, thus ensuring maximum structural stability over time.

Do you have any questions?
Here you will find all the answers.
What is Agriconterra?
Agriconterra is a high-performance single-axis solar tracker, designed for agrivoltaic installations with tall or specialised crops. It offers increased ground clearance and a reinforced structure.
Why choose Agriconterra over a standard tracker?
It is specifically designed for advanced agrivoltaics: more space for crops, reinforced structure, and intelligent control configurable according to plant growth.
What is the minimum ground clearance?
The ground clearance reaches 2.1 metres at full tilt, in line with the requirements of the Agri-photovoltaic Decree.
Agriconterra is suitable for difficult climatic conditions?
Yes. The structure uses IPE180 beams and reinforced joints, and it is designed to withstand wind, snow, and corrosive environments.
What advanced control features are included?
In addition to 2D backtracking and, on request, 3D, Agriconterra allows for automatic adjustment of inclination based on crop development or other customisable agricultural parameters.
How do you control the tracker?
You have several options:
- Android/iOS app via Bluetooth
- Industrial PC supplied
- Remote desktop
- Dedicated web portal (on request)
Is the structure customisable?
Yes. The length and layout are adaptable to the site's specifications. Contact Italia offers a full bespoke design service.
