VARIABLE RATE IRRIGATION (VRI)

OPTIMIZE WATER DISTRIBUTION
MAXIMIZE YIELD POTENTIAL

Variable rate irrigation applies precise amounts of water to match numerous variables within each field.  Multiple prescriptions can be created based on soil variables and topography.  From the RPM Preferred Touch, you’ll be able to immediately verify that everything is running properly.

SECTION

Sector VRI segments the coverage area into multiple pie-like slices (sectors) up to 1/10th of a degree by controlling the speed of the pivot, which increases or decreases the water application rate.  The base application depth can be easily adjusted higher or lower without changing the prescription.  Works with existing sprinkler packages.

ZONE

In addition to the Sector VRI, the coverage area can further be divided into as many as 84 rings.  By combining the sectors and rings, more than 300,000 independently controlled zones are created for precision water application.  Additional hardware is required.
