Lumo and Wyatt Irrigation Supply Join Forces for Precision Irrigation Revolution

Lumo Partners with Wyatt Irrigation Supply: A New Era in Precision Irrigation

In a significant milestone for the agricultural sector, Lumo, a prominent innovator in precision irrigation technology, has established a strategic alliance with Wyatt Irrigation Supply, a trusted leader in the irrigation industry since 1982. This partnership aims to transform and standardize irrigation practices across the vineyards of Napa and Sonoma, addressing the pressing challenges faced by winegrowers today.

The wine industry is currently grappling with an array of obstacles, including rapidly escalating labor costs, market fluctuations, and stringent water regulations. As the landscape becomes increasingly competitive, adapting to these challenges is no longer optional but essential for vineyard sustainability and profitability.

Tim Goetz, an Irrigation Designer at Wyatt Irrigation, emphasized the importance of choosing the right irrigation automation solution. He stated, "Over the years, we’ve evaluated countless irrigation automation solutions. Lumo is head and shoulders above the rest in its simplicity, ease of use, and ability to help growers irrigate to plan." This sentiment reflects a broader industry recognition that efficient irrigation systems are key to improving fruit quality while reducing labor costs efficiently.

Lumo is not new to the industry; it has already made its mark with innovative solutions that have gained traction in over 150 vineyards, including prestigious names such as Treasury, JFW, Trinchero, and Chateau Montelena. With an astounding 400% annual growth rate over consecutive years, it’s clear that Lumo's technology is delivering tangible results in real-world applications. Growers are increasingly turning to Lumo’s platform as they recognize its potential to enhance performance while offering significant cost savings.

The collaboration will help achieve a much-needed standardization in vineyard irrigation systems. Jay Pelm, President of Wyatt Irrigation Supply, pointed out that establishing a single irrigation automation platform could streamline costs and enhance innovation across the board. He asserted, "It's high time that winegrowers in Napa and Sonoma standardized on a single irrigation automation platform." Such a move could lead to economies of scale and superior technology adaptations in the future.

Moreover, this partnership grants Wyatt access to valuable block-level data, which can drive enhancements in system design and overall performance. Such insights could significantly improve the services offered to their clients and sustain the company's reputation as the premier irrigation partner in the region.

Devon Wright, CEO of Lumo, expressed enthusiasm for this newfound partnership, emphasizing the mutual benefits it would bring to winegrowers. He stated, "Lumo would not be the product it is today without Wyatt, and formalizing the partnership can only mean bigger and better things for winegrowers in the seasons to come." This alignment between Lumo's technology and Wyatt's extensive market knowledge bodes well for the future of precision irrigation.

For vineyard owners looking to optimize their irrigation systems, the underlying message is clear: prioritize efficiency and effectiveness.
