Growers looking for a more efficient way to manage their irrigation systems will be pleased to hear about the new irrigation optimization product from Ceres Imaging. This innovative solution combines soil moisture sensors and other in-field data with Ceres’ imagery to provide growers with a comprehensive view of their irrigation performance.
According to Ashwin Madgavkar, CEO and founder of Ceres Imaging, optimizing irrigation is crucial, especially during times of drought when water resources are limited. By integrating different technologies, growers can make better decisions about water usage and improve uniformity in their crops.
One key benefit of Ceres’ irrigation optimization solution is that it makes daily irrigation decisions easier and faster by providing access to sensor information and imagery in one place. This allows growers to quickly identify areas where water usage can be reduced using water demand maps provided by Ceres.
The way irrigation optimization works is through the use of precise crop health data obtained through imagery and real-time data from sensors at specific locations on the farm. By combining in-field sensor data with imagery, growers can have a comprehensive view of their irrigation strategy from application to its impact on the crop. This integration allows growers to quickly identify issues, errors, and discrepancies, ultimately saving them valuable time.
