Citrus Irrigation Systems

Citrus is an evergreen crop with water needs all year long, and it is sensitive to drought, to water-logging and to salinity. WiseConn helps citrus growers irrigate with precision: automate every valve, monitor soil moisture and weather in real time, and water based on data, all on top of the drip or micro-sprinkler system you already run.

Why precision irrigation matters for citrus

Citrus, whether oranges, lemons or mandarins, is evergreen and needs water through the whole year, not just one season. It is sensitive to drought, to water-logging and to salinity, so consistent, well-managed irrigation matters every month.

Precision irrigation replaces fixed schedules with continuous monitoring and automated control, so the grove gets steady, appropriate water year-round and you can manage salinity with controlled, data-based watering.

Automate your citrus irrigation with WiseConn

WiseConn brings field hardware and the DropControl platform together into a single system for managing irrigation across your whole grove. Rugged field nodes monitor and control the grove, while DropControl gives you a web dashboard and a mobile app to manage it from anywhere.

  • RF-M1 monitoring node for soil and environmental monitoring across the orchard.
  • RF-V1 valve controller for wireless control of latch valves, block by block.
  • RF-C1 irrigation controller for local control with multiple inputs and relays.
  • RF-X1 monitoring and control for multi-sensor, flexible automation.

DropControl is built on an open architecture, so you can start with monitoring on your current setup and scale to full automation at your own pace.

How it works

  • Field nodes collect soil moisture, weather and system data and send it into DropControl to help make better informed decisions.
  • Data flows to the cloud and is available in real time through the DropControl web platform and mobile app.
  • You define irrigation rules and schedules, and the system runs them automatically, opening and closing valves block by block.
  • Three roles, one platform: irrigators run day-to-day watering from the mobile app, farm managers make decisions and report from the web, and owners track water use and sustainability.

What growers gain

Water savings

Irrigate from real soil moisture and weather data, not a fixed calendar. Growers typically reduce water use by 20 to 40 percent depending on their starting point.
