Irrigation Decision Support Systems

Irrigation Decision Support Systems

Irrigation decision support systems (IDSS) are integrated solutions that combine and interpret real-time meteorological, soil moisture and crop water stress data to help growers make more efficient irrigation decisions.

The Aquacheck probe is capable of measuring capacitance based soil moisture and soil temperature.

Hub Highlights:
  • Installation is done by FarmX. Equipment is "rented" for the duration of the season.
  • Without built-in telemetry, the Aquacheck probe relies on FarmX equipment (repeater) to transmit data to the cloud.
  • FarmX also offers irrigation management and aerial imaging services.

The Arable Mark 2 is a canopy sensor and weather station, collecting up to 40 different climate and plant metrics, such as evapotranspiration, NDVI, and crop water balance.

Hub Highlights:
  • Installs in minutes, deploys with the push of a button, and requires no maintenance.
  • Collected data accessible on Arable's Web and Mobile apps and via API integration.
  • Arable Bridge, sold separately, allows for integration of auxiliary sensors such as anemometers, soil moisture probes, and pressure switches.

Tule sensors placed just above a crop’s canopy measure Actual Evapotranspiration (ETa) and provide growers real-time ETa data, crop water stress, irrigation monitoring, and irrigation suggestions daily.

Hub Highlights:
  • Sensor installation is performed by Tule. In-line pressure switches may be installed by Tule or by the grower.
  • Tule's online dashboard and mobile app allow the ability to forecast and target plant water stress and canopy development.
  • Measures flow of a single drip line in duration (h) or volume (in).
