Precision Vineyard Irrigation System

Project Overview:

Val de Vie Estate required a vineyard irrigation system for its expanding operations. TMI designed the system around row spacing, slope, soil data and vineyard block layouts, with filtration, fertigation and automation compatibility.

Scope of Work:

  • Custom-designed drip irrigation network tailored to row spacing and slope
  • Integrated filtration and fertigation system
  • Zoned irrigation based on soil data and block layouts
  • Remote automation compatibility for long-term control and monitoring

Key Components:

  • Pressure-compensated drip lines for even water distribution
  • Sand and disc filtration system
  • Battery-backed control unit for system resilience

Outcome:

TMI delivered a scalable drip irrigation system with pressure-compensated lines, sand and disc filtration, fertigation and zoned control. Battery-backed controls support continued system operation, while automation compatibility enables remote monitoring.
