It's not uncommon to visit a vineyard with automation equipment that has been abandoned, such as solenoid valves with the wires snipped or irrigation controllers that haven't been touched in years, which begs the question, why?
The short answer is that unreliable automation is simply too risky for growers to bet their businesses on. It's safer to irrigate manually, if it ensures the job gets done, even if it's not the most efficient.
Fortunately, technology developments are paving the way for automation systems that remove all the risk, while providing many benefits.

Climate change and population growth are forcing governments and growers to adopt new water management technology. Currently, the systems that growers have for managing and tracking irrigation are broken and wasteful. Lumo’s technology will not only help them in terms of productivity and profitability, but it will also support them as stewards of the planet.
Irrigation is growing faster than any other use case.
Lumo was founded by a small group of tech entrepreneurs, each wanting to step up to do our part helping solve the impact climate change has on our water supply.
We know that we’re facing a water shortage. But we have to move from knowing to doing.
To solve the problem of freshwater availability, we believe we must invent more efficient ways to irrigate so we can protect the world’s most precious resource – water.
