What is SURDEV?

In 2001, a partnership among the International Institute for Land Reclamation and Improvement (ILRI), Wageningen Environmental Research, and the Institute of Land and Water Management of the Catholic University of Leuven (ILWM) in Belgium resulted in the development of the SURDEV software suite. This suite comprises three distinct programs: BASDEV, which is suited for level basins; BORDEV, crafted for sloping borders; and FURDEV, aimed at graded furrows. Surface irrigation relies on gravity to effectively spread water across agricultural landscapes. As gravity acts on the water, it flows from one end of the field to the other, allowing for gradual infiltration into the soil. Among the various techniques utilized in surface irrigation, level basins (which can feature level furrows), sloping borders, and sloping furrows stand out as the most commonly implemented methods, all designed to ensure efficient water delivery. The key objective of these irrigation strategies is to provide crops with water in accurate quantities, at ideal times, and consistently, promoting uniform growth while reducing water loss. Additionally, the thoughtful implementation of these methods can contribute to enhanced agricultural efficiency and environmental sustainability, ultimately benefiting farmers and ecosystems alike.

What is RainRule?

RainRule provides farmers with a robust tool to enhance irrigation management by leveraging up-to-the-minute weather data, in-depth crop profiles, and a thorough soil-water balance based on the FAO-56 methodology. The platform allows users to create detailed maps of their agricultural fields, review irrigation projections for the next week, document their watering practices, and receive consistent email updates. Notably, the system generates suggestions without necessitating any additional sensor installations. Furthermore, it offers optional integrations with various platforms such as Rachio, Hunter Hydrawise, and OpenSprinkler, as well as the flexibility of custom webhooks, facilitating both manual oversight and automated watering processes, all while ensuring runtime and precipitation-related safeguards. An API is also provided for equipment compatibility, enabling it to accept sensor readings and delineate field boundaries. Subscription options accommodate up to 100 fields across multiple farms and support connections to five controllers, with a pricing structure of $49 per month or $490 per year. A 14-day trial is available without requiring a credit card, allowing prospective users to test the service with up to three fields, thereby making it easier for newcomers to appreciate its advantages. Through this all-encompassing model, farmers are empowered to significantly improve their irrigation techniques and make informed decisions that enhance their overall productivity.
