Irrigation

Do you have an irrigation system that has been operating on your farm for at least two out of the last 5 years? Are you wondering if your irrigation system is applying water uniformly? Our staff can assist you with irrigation water management through both technical and financial assistance.  

It’s important to not under or over water your crops. Both can have potential negative effects on crops as well as groundwater. Advanced technologies such as soil moisture sensors can be utilized to give you real time data either in the field or right on your smart phone or tablet. This data can help you make informed decisions on when and how much water to apply based on your crop type, growth stage, weather, and other factors.
