pct vri pivot solutions!

Generally VRI on overhead systems is more about maximising yield than saving water. The irrigation system itself is designed to reduce overall water use in comaprison to surface irrigation however you can maximise the yield by equiping the Pivot or Linear with variable rate technology like the the Valley system.

At PCT we are able to not only create VRI maps but can also use spatial data to design the best variable rate system for your pivot or lateral move. You can vary speed or install zone control and both systems will improve your application. At PCT we can establish your potential return by using overhead irrigation before you even install.

 

One of the most valuable solutions PCT provides is our Optimised yield analysis. You know how hard it is to get uniform yield so we show you what variable you have in your fields and which ones need to be managed for.

This simply means you can't have you cake and eat it too - some areas are going to suffer and our solutions make sure that you know which areas you should let suffer to maximise your early return.

Below is an analysis of a field which doesn't have VRI implemented yet. Stayed tuned for this seasons data to see the differnce from variable rate irrigation.

   

Using VisionAg Quick Compare its simple to see the results of a season irrigation. On the right had the irrigation been more in line with zone 6 this grower would have made consdierable more revenue.
