GET MORE CUTS AND DRY MATTER – WITH LOWER COSTS

If you want to gain an edge in the alfalfa market, you need to increase your alfalfa yields and quality, and lower your costs. Meet precision irrigation. 

The challenge with lucerne

Lucerne is a uniquely-demanding, water-intensive, perennial crop with a deep root system. But even a little stress caused by too much or too little water will have a negative effect on its growth, development and overall stand quality. 

 

So as a lucerne grower, you’re dealing a sensitive, demanding crop and controlling for unpredictable climates. To achieve bigger yields and higher-quality crops you need a solution that maximises your control, conserves your resources and makes your day-to-day life easier. 

How precision irrigation helps

Precision irrigation gives you total control over the lucerne root zone by using SDI (subsurface drip irrigation), delivering water and nutrients straight to the roots of each plant. It fits into any plot, and can be applied to all topographies, field sizes and soil types. So you can maintain optimal soil moisture and nutrient levels in all conditions, across your entire lucerne field.

And if you add digital controls to your system, you’ll be able to monitor and optimise your yield as it’s growing, gaining data about every aspect of your field and local climate. So wherever you are, however you grow, you can ensure consistently high, top-quality yields every season. And make even bigger profits.
