Operational Transparency – Orchard to Office Visibility and Confirmation of Irrigation Actions Cost Effective ‘Insurance’ Against Irrigation Failure Daily Plant Stress Monitoring (Almond, Walnut, Pistachio, Pecan, Hazelnut, etc) Improved Confidence of Orchard Management Established Orchard:
Grow By Colours - Maximise Yield - Minimise Tree Growth
New Orchard:
Maximise Tree Growth For Quicker ROI (Land, Trees, Infrastructure, Inputs)
