How it works
From sensor to action in under 10 milliseconds. Four steps that transform raw soil data into precision irrigation decisions.
The crisis beneath the surface
of irrigation water wasted on UAE farms due to fixed-schedule systems
of UAE arable land degraded by soil salinity from unmanaged irrigation
projected year groundwater becomes unsuitable for agriculture at current extraction rates
Agriculture consumes over 60% of the UAE's water resources, yet field-level efficiency remains at just 55-65%. With groundwater levels dropping by up to 60 meters in key agricultural regions and national water demand projected to reach 2.64 billion cubic meters by 2040, the UAE faces a fundamental tension: grow more food with less water. Current irrigation practices make this impossible.
