Soil scout, founded in 2013, has a range of 500 m / 1640 ft, 2.5 times the range in the article. https://soilscout.com/solution/wireless-soil-moisture-sensor

That's not even a great range either, LoRaWAN can reach 10km in rural settings. Meter Group's Teros 12 (which is available using LoRaWAN architecture) is a much better sensor too, soil scout doesn't have a particularly good reputation.
