Automated Irrigation System
What is an Automated Irrigation System?
Benefits of Automated Irrigation Systems
Improved Water Efficiency: Automated irrigation systems use sensors to monitor soil moisture levels and adjust watering schedules accordingly. This helps prevent over-watering or under-watering, reducing water waste and improving overall water efficiency.
Enhanced Crop Yields: By providing the optimal amount of water at the right times, automated systems can significantly boost crop yields and quality. The precise control over irrigation helps plants thrive and produce higher yields.
Reduced Labor Costs: Traditional manual irrigation methods require regular monitoring and adjustment by farm staff. Automated systems can handle the entire irrigation process without the need for constant human intervention, lowering labor costs.
Remote Monitoring and Control: Many automated irrigation systems offer remote monitoring and control capabilities, allowing farmers to manage their water usage from anywhere using a smartphone or computer. This provides greater flexibility and convenience.
Customizable Scheduling: Automated systems can be programmed with precise watering schedules tailored to the specific needs of different crops, soil types, and climatic conditions. This level of customization is difficult to achieve with manual irrigation.
Improved Consistency: Automated systems deliver water with far more consistency compared to manual methods, creating a more stable and optimal growing environment for crops.
Automated Irrigation for Plants and Crops
An automated irrigation system deploys technology to water crops or plants automatically. Such systems make watering more efficient and precise. Typical components are a network of pipes, valves and sprinklers or drip and quantities of water.
Sensors to Gauge Soil Moisture and Temperature
Automated irrigation systems can even incorporate sensors to gauge soil moisture and temperature and adjust the watering schedule, so plants are neither under or over-watered. These systems play an important role in optimising watering and boosting crop yields while conserving this precious resource.
G&M Poly Irrigation is your answer for a highly developed automated irrigation system. It combines radio telemetry, solar power and computers for an easy-to-use, automated irrigation system that is exceedingly flexible, powerful and cost-effective. The system uses a licence-free VHF band. The standard operating range of 8 km can be increased to over 30km where required.
The system allows irrigation schedules to be created and stored for automatic operation for greater accuracy and efficiency. Alarms monitor a range of functions for peace of mind during automatic operation.
