The water management challenge: In-Field
Modernised supply infrastructure• On demand service, consistent
delivery, high flow rates with larger channels and outlets
Science & Modelling• Determine time to cut-off,
adaptive modelling and reduction of waterlogging
Engineering & Technology• Automation, sensors, software,
communication and hardware
Agronomy & Management• Determination of crop water
demand and quantitative irrigation scheduling
9
Plan• Map your farm and
define fields, bays crops, soil type, refill points
• Visual Display of automated bays
10
Plan• Map your farm and
define fields, bays crops, soil type, refill points
• Measure and calculate areas
• Create crop water budgets
• Create irrigation schedules for later use
11
Crop• Soil moisture status
from field sensors• Soil moisture status
from estimated from ETc data
• Manage according to crop Growth stage
• Receive alerts that impact on crop health

Irrigate• Smart Furrow Irrigation
• This replaces the manual system of irrigating cotton and row crops with siphons by hand
• Creates a new standard for the industry for automating furrow irrigation which for many decades were manually operated
22
Irrigate• Smart Furrow Irrigation
• Convert from an existing over-the-bank siphon setup.
• Utilises existing furrow layouts, with the addition of a secondary channel
• pipes embedded in the secondary channel bank
• Delivers water accurately to each furrow in a set
