With more than 50 years of crop and irrigation research, Lindsay is a leader in using technology to simplify the science of agronomic irrigation. FieldNET Advisor provides meaningful insights on how to help growers maximize yields. With additional data now available through these enhancements, growers have a powerful tool to help reduce input costs, conserve resources and apply the precise amount of water needed for a healthier crop.
“FieldNET Advisor has empowered growers to produce healthier crops and to develop more sustainable farming practices by providing recommendations on when, where and how much to irrigate,” said Kurtis Charling, vice president of AgTech Solutions for Lindsay. “We asked growers for their feedback and incorporated new features and technology to provide growers with additional insights to help get the best return in the field and their bottom line.”

By combining FieldNET Advisor’s recommendations with the advanced agronomics of FieldNET and Zimmatic™ machine health features, Lindsay has transformed the way growers irrigate crops. Integrated pivots support healthier crops and more sustainable farming practices while reducing risk and operational downtime, significantly expanding the traditional capabilities of pivots.
“We build solutions by farmers, for farmers,” said Gustavo Oberto, president of irrigation for Lindsay. “That’s why it is so important to us that the team building our products and technologies has first-hand knowledge of how those solutions are working in the field. With enhancements to FieldNET Advisor, we’re able to synthesize millions of data points to determine the best irrigation option from both a crop- and field-level point of view. Growers will continue to have peace of mind that their FieldNET remote irrigation solution gives them the power to monitor, control and manage their operation to help maximize yields and profitability.”
