Precision Agriculture
You're irrigating blind.
Your soil knows better.
Most growers make water decisions from a calendar, a gut feeling, or a single surface probe. Meanwhile, what's actually happening at one depth looks nothing like what's happening at another. You're either overwatering and paying for it, or under-watering and losing yield you'll never get back.
Terminal Agri gives you the full picture — soil tension at three depths, soil temperature, and valve control in a single wireless node. No trenching. No wiring. No cellular bills. Data on your phone, valves on your terms.

One Terminal. Three depths. The whole story.
Terminal Agri reads soil tension at three depths you choose in the root zone via Watermark sensors, plus one soil temperature channel and a latching-valve drive. That's a complete irrigation decision point for every zone on your farm: three tension channels, one temperature channel, one valve, on a single Terminal.
Everything talks over LoRaWAN (US915) — a private network you own, no SIM cards, no monthly fees. Range is 5 km open-air, 1 km indoor. Each Terminal runs roughly 5 years on four C-cell batteries. Deploy across remote blocks in a morning.

Why It Matters
The problems you already know.
Water is money.
Whether you're managing allocations in Paso Robles, paying per acre-foot in Fallbrook, or pumping from limited catchment in Kona — every wasted gallon costs more than it did last year. Irrigating by calendar or gut feel means guessing. Irrigating by soil data means knowing.
Shallow probes miss what matters.
A single probe at 6 or 8 inches tells you what's happening at the surface. It doesn't tell you whether moisture is reaching the deep root zone, or whether you're pushing water past it entirely. Three depths changes the conversation.
The damage happens where you can't see it.
A single surface reading doesn't tell you what's happening below it. By the time the canopy tells you something's wrong, the season is already decided.
You can't be everywhere.
Walking rows to check soil or driving to remote blocks to toggle a valve doesn't scale. It barely works. Your time is worth more than that.
What You Get
Today, not someday.
Real-time soil tension at three depths.
See what's happening in the root zone right now. Trends over days, weeks, months. Stations organized by field and zone so you know exactly which block needs water and which doesn't.
Soil temperature.
Time your irrigation. Track root-zone conditions during flowering and fruit development. One more data point that changes decisions.
Valve control from your phone.
Open and close the latching solenoid valve remotely. No walking rows, no driving to the field to turn a handle.
Your data, your hardware.
The software runs on a Base Station at your site. Not in someone else's cloud. Your data stays on your farm. Works even if the internet goes down.

Roadmap
Where this is headed.
We're building toward weather-integrated irrigation guidance — combining ground-truth soil tension data with weather forecasts to inform watering decisions (targeting Fall 2026) — and automated irrigation scheduling once we have real field data to trust (targeting late 2026). We don't ship algorithms trained on someone else's dirt.
The first step is deploying sensors, collecting data, and proving the value of ground-truth visibility. Automation comes when the data says it's ready — not before.
Crops We Work With
Built for specialty agriculture.
Deficit irrigation is an art. Soil-tension data turns it into a science. Manage vine stress precisely, zone by zone, block by block. Works whether you’re in Paso Robles, Napa, Temecula, or Valle de Guadalupe.
Shallow, sensitive root systems on steep hillside groves. The margin between too much water and too little is narrow — soil-tension data at multiple depths finds it.
Fast-draining volcanic soil, variable microclimates across elevation bands. Three-depth monitoring reveals what a single surface probe never could — how moisture behaves differently at every depth and every altitude.
Deep feeder roots and extreme water sensitivity during nut fill. Surface probes miss what’s happening at depth — multi-depth soil tension doesn’t.
If it has roots and you’re paying for water, we can help.
Let's talk about your farm.
We work directly with growers — no distributor, no sales deck, no runaround. If you want ground-truth soil data and valve control without the six-figure SCADA quote, request a demo or book a call.
