SMART IRRIGATION

MANAGE YOUR CROPS

ANALYZE DATA

OPTIMIZE WATER USE

A smart platform designed to address modern challenges in agriculture, optimizing water use, improving productivity and promoting sustainability.

A data-driven approach to reduce waste, optimize water balance, and monitor crop conditions in real time.

Integrate weather, soil, crop, and satellite data to tell you when to irrigate and how much water to use.

CREATE YOUR OWN FIELD

AND ANALYZE YOUR CROP DATA

Draw your field boundaries directly on the map based on your available hectares. 
Apply a predefined soil composition or customize it by adjusting the percentages of sand, silt, clay, humus, and limestone.

The following infomations are displayed for each soil:

  • VEGETATION INDICES
  • SOIL MOISTURE AND TEMPERATURE
  • HISTORICAL METEOROLOGICAL DATA
  • WEATHER FORECAST
  • TRACK CROP VEGETATION TRENDS 
  • MONITOR CROP HEALTH OVER TIME (1–6 MONTHS)
  • IMPROVE WATER USE EFFICIENCY
  • MAINTAIN OPTIMAL WATER BALANCE FOR YOUR CROPS
  • DAILY MEASUREMENTS, EVEN AT 10 CM DEPTH
  • UNDERSTAND YOUR CROPS’ ACTUAL WATER NEEDS
  • PREVENT WATER DEFICITS AND OVER-IRRIGATION
  • ENABLE HIGHLY TARGETED IRRIGATION SCHEDULING
  • IMPROVE SOIL EFFICIENCY
  • ENHANCE SOIL PRODUCTIVITY
  • GAIN MORE ACCURATE INSIGHTS INTO PAST WEATHER TRENDS
  • MAKE BETTER AGRICULTURAL DECISIONS

WATER DEFICIT

This indicates the level of depletion of the readily available water reserve.
If the blue line exceeds the action threshold, the crop is at risk of water stress.

INTEGRATED INDEX

This shows the evolution of the integrated stress index (ground data + satellite data) across the various risk categories.

SOIL MOISTURE (m³/m³)

Monitoring the volumetric water content of the soil.
The optimal condition is to maintain moisture levels between the survival limit and the maximum water-holding capacity.

DAILY WATER BALANCE

Compares the amount of water retained in the soil with the amount consumed by the crop.

IRRIGATION AND SOIL PARAMETERS

Calculation of the total volume of water required to make up the deficit, analysis of soil moisture levels, calculation of irrigation duration based on the system’s flow rate, details of the last irrigation.

Display of the crop, phenological stage, current Kc coefficient, soil type and estimated moisture content.

ANALYSIS OF SMART IRRIGATION

Soil and satellite analysis

DATI METEO LOCALIZZATI ED INDICI VEGETAZIONALI DA SATELLITE

Display of the following daily data: average temperature, relative humidity, cumulative rainfall, 3-day rainfall forecast, wind, solar radiation and evapotranspiration.

It analyses NDVI (vegetative vigour), NDWI (vegetation water content), EVI (green biomass) and DSWI (crop water stress).

The following information is displayed:

  • cultivation
  • a summary of the weather data
  • today’s tip and those from previous days
  • a map showing the plots being monitored

There is also a summary table containing the following data:

  • the date and time of the update
  • the irrigation board
  • the type of soil, the crop and the weather conditions

The following information is displayed:

  • Maximum water-holding capacity: the maximum amount of water that the soil can hold
  • Comfort threshold: the level below which the crop begins to suffer
  • Acqua disponibile
  • Current water deficit: the amount of water required to reach field capacity
  • Comparison: income and expenditure relating to the land
The following details are displayed:
  • Estimated soil moisture: volumetric estimate based on an agronomic model and satellite data
  • Satellite stress: average vegetative stress value recorded in the plot
  • Relative water deficit: percentage of depletion of the readily available water reserve
  • Decision-making indicator: a composite index (0–1) that combines satellite data and the water balance

WATER DEFICIT

This indicates the level of depletion of the readily available water reserve.
If the blue line exceeds the action threshold, the crop is at risk of water stress.

INTEGRATED INDEX

This shows the evolution of the integrated stress index (ground data + satellite data) across the various risk categories.

SOIL MOISTURE (m³/m³)

Monitoring the volumetric water content of the soil.
The optimal condition is to maintain moisture levels between the survival limit and the maximum water-holding capacity.

DAILY WATER BALANCE
