You run hundreds of feddans on human judgement. Measurement turns judgement into a decision.

Large Farms & Agribusiness

For anyone farming 200 feddans or more under one management: a measure-and-control system that gives cost per cubic metre per plot, and a monthly report fit for a Central Bank modern-irrigation financing file.

The problem

  • There is no water figure per plot, which makes comparing two plots - or two seasons - impossible.

  • The diesel bill is paid in cash at peak season, months before the crop is sold.

  • Irrigation decisions are taken by a different supervisor each shift, so one schedule gets executed three ways.

  • Pump failures are discovered when irrigation stops, and an hour of downtime in July costs more than the repair.

  • A financing application needs technical documents and consumption figures, and there is no record to build them from.

What it delivers

  • Cost per cubic metre, per plot

    A meter on every pump outlet turns water from an unknown line into a number that sits beside fertiliser and labour in the cost sheet.

  • 25-40% saving against flood

    The difference in application efficiency between flood (50-65%) and demand-controlled drip - the calculator on this site shows the full arithmetic.

  • Operation that does not depend on the supervisor

    The valve opens on a crop-specific moisture threshold and closes at field capacity, so the shift does not change the outcome.

  • A financing file that is already written

    A monthly consumption report per plot and the technical documents a 0%-interest modern-irrigation application requires.

Results

  • The Central Bank modern-irrigation initiative: EGP 55.5 billion at 0% interest, repayable over up to 10 years.
  • Flood application efficiency is 50-65% against 85-95% for managed drip - FAO Irrigation and Drainage Paper 56.
  • A monthly consumption report per plot, from a meter on every pump outlet.
