Connect sensors to a mobile phone

I have a small farm that is located in an area with mobile phone coverage. I
have installed some soil moisture and temperature sensors and have a pump
and watering system. I would like to be able to receive readings from the
sensors as SMS messages and then turn on/off the watering system from my
home about 150 km away, based on my decision about the dryness conditions,
again by sending an SMS. I have seen a few SMS controllers (Jaycar, Dick
Smith etc.) but none seem to do what I want.  Any suggestions?

Regards
Peter
