Irrigation Systems

Grape and Vineyard Irrigation Systems

In the vineyard, water is a tool, not just a need. Whether you grow table grapes or wine grapes, how and when you irrigate shapes the way the vine grows. WiseConn helps vineyard growers irrigate with precision: automate every block, monitor soil moisture and weather in real time, and apply the watering strategy you choose, all on top of the drip system you already run.

Why vineyards demand precision irrigation

Many growers manage vine vigor with deficit irrigation, applying carefully controlled amounts of water at specific stages. That only works if you can deliver the right amount to the right block at the right time, and verify it with data. A fixed schedule and manual valves cannot do that.

Precision irrigation gives you block-by-block control and continuous soil and weather data, so you can run your watering strategy accurately across the whole vineyard, and adjust as the season and the weather change.

Automate your vineyard irrigation with WiseConn

WiseConn brings field hardware and the DropControl platform together into a single system for managing irrigation across your whole vineyard. Rugged field nodes monitor and control the vineyard, 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

Schedule irrigation from real soil moisture and weather data instead of a fixed calendar, reducing water use by 20 to 40 percent depending on your starting point.

Energy savings

Pump only when the vineyard needs it and shift watering to lower-cost hours, cutting the energy behind every irrigation cycle.

Labor savings

Automate valve operation across every block and run the vineyard with a small supervising team instead of crews opening valves by hand.
