Water is the single biggest cost on this avocado farm, and prices continue to rise while crop prices stay flat.
In this video, a California farmer explains how tracking soil moisture, weather data, and irrigation timing in one integrated system helped reduce water use from roughly four acre-feet per acre to between two and two and a half. The goal isn’t tech for tech’s sake. It’s using better information to make practical decisions, control costs, and keep a small family farm viable.
This approach is designed to be flexible, affordable, and adaptable to farms of different sizes, without locking growers into expensive, closed ecosystems built for large corporate operations.
