Scenario Needs

Why do open-field projects need smart irrigation control?

Open-field irrigation typically covers large areas with many zones and scattered valves, with long distances between pumps, pipelines, valves and field equipment. Traditional manual irrigation requires extensive on-site operations and struggles to timely monitor soil moisture, valve status, flow, pressure and equipment operation.

Through smart irrigation control, wireless valve control, soil moisture monitoring, weather monitoring and cloud platform management, open-field projects can achieve pump-valve linkage, zone rotation irrigation, remote control, data monitoring and alarm notifications, improving irrigation management efficiency.

Pain Points

Common Management Pain Points in Open-Field Irrigation

In large-scale field irrigation projects, customers typically focus on irrigation efficiency, labor costs, water management, equipment status and remote control capabilities.

Low Efficiency in Manual Valve Operation

With scattered field valves, manual valve operation, pipeline inspection and irrigation task recording require significant time and labor.

Difficult Zone Irrigation Management

Different plots, crops, growth stages and soil conditions vary; uniform irrigation easily causes uneven watering and water waste.

Field Wiring and Power Supply Challenges

Open-field scenarios involve long distances and scattered equipment; traditional wired control is expensive, and some valve and sensor points lack convenient power supply.

Lack of Real-Time Data and Alarms

Without soil moisture, weather, flow, pressure, valve status and equipment online data, anomalies are difficult to detect in time.
