Precision Irrigation
Water Delivery Hardware
Physical infrastructure designed for surgical water delivery accuracy based on plant biological requirements.
Water is not simply a delivery medium—it is a critical input for plant performance. We optimise every aspect of water delivery and quality so that plants receive exactly what they need, when they need it, whilst maximising water use efficiency across the whole system.
What We Cover
Irrigation Logic
Defining the right irrigation strategy for your crop, system, and environment — balancing frequency, volume, timing, and run-off to achieve optimal root zone conditions.
Required Components
Full supply, installation, and installation oversight of all physical irrigation infrastructure — pumps, pipework, distribution networks, sensors, and associated hardware.
Irrigation Strategy & Control
Integrated scheduling and automated control logic that responds to plant demand and environmental conditions in real time — including closed-loop recirculating design for maximum efficiency.
Water Quality
Advanced Fertigation
Nutrient Optimisation
Precision nutrient delivery optimised through plant science insights for maximum performance and cost effectiveness.
Moving beyond one-size-fits-all, our nutrition philosophy delivers integrated, science-led solutions that combine robust, cost-effective dosing hardware and responsive software with customised settings ensuring every plant receives exactly what it needs, at every stage, for optimal performance.
How we apply this:
- Science-Based Formulations: Nutrient recipes developed from our genetic plasticity research and root zone optimisation protocols.
- Reliable, Accurate Equipment: Nutrient dosing that performs as expected, consistently, with simple plug-and-play setup and maintenance.
- Multi-Part Nutrient Delivery: Elegant solutions enabling real-time recipe creation using cost-effective fertilisers.
- Real-Time Plant Response: Responds to plant uptake patterns guided by our plant science expertise, optimising performance 24/7.
- Targeted Performance Outcomes: Plant nutrition designed to deliver results specific to your crop objectives.
- Root-Zone Enhancement Products: Targeted biostimulants, beneficial microorganisms, and root conditioning treatments that enhance nutrient uptake efficiency and root system vigour.
Automation & Control
The Execution
Intelligent system orchestration that eliminates manual intervention and operational complexity.
Automation should remove burden, not add it. Whether deploying our proprietary advanced control systems or optimizing your existing infrastructure, we bridge the gap between hardware, science, and data—programming and integrating diverse systems to execute with precision. Our solutions handle the technical complexity so your team can focus on growing, not managing machinery.
How we apply this:
- CultivaTech Control: Proprietary responsive root-zone and environmental management system built on deep plant science foundations, uniquely considering 7+ billion variable combinations per genetic profile.
- Third-Party System Integration: Programming and interfacing with multiple existing control systems, protecting your current investments while adding advanced capabilities.
- Unlock Genetic Potential: Discover and manage the variable relationships that drive plant biochemical pathways in your specific varieties.
- Plant-Led Philosophy: Automation responds to biological needs determined by our plant science protocols, not pre-set schedules.
- Industrial-Grade Reliability: Facility-wide coordination with 99%+ system uptime, featuring built-in backup and redundancy.
Integration Services
The Whole Is Greater Than the Sum of Its Parts
Individual components—however good—only deliver their full potential when they work together as one. We design, connect, and coordinate every element of your system so the integrated whole delivers results no single component could achieve alone.
Why This Matters
Most suppliers only handle their own equipment, leaving you to coordinate how everything connects. We deliver the entire integrated system—hardware, software, supply chain, and plant science—so you benefit from true system-level performance.
How we apply this:
- Complete System Integration: We connect hardware, install and configure all software systems, and implement plant science protocols — ensuring everything communicates and works together as one.
- Single-Point Responsibility: One team manages everything from design to installation to ongoing support — no coordination headaches for you.
- Supply Chain Integration: We coordinate multi-stakeholder requirements across equipment suppliers, service partners, and operational teams — aligning timelines, specifications, and delivery into one coherent programme.
- Multi-Vendor Coordination: We make equipment from different suppliers work together seamlessly, eliminating compatibility issues and integration risk.
- Software Configuration & Training: Install control software, set up analytics dashboards, and train your team on the complete integrated system.
- Plant Science Implementation: Deploy our biological protocols and optimisation techniques specific to your crops and facility.
- Operations Consultancy: Lean and Six Sigma process consultancy applied to growing and operational workflows — eliminating waste, improving consistency, and building the operational discipline that sustains performance gains.
- Simplicity by Design: Simple and elegant over complicated and expensive. We help you spend what you need to — and not a penny more — by stripping out complexity that adds cost without adding value.
- Ongoing Technical Support: Remote monitoring, software updates, protocol adjustments, and on-site visits keep everything running optimally long-term.
The Unifying Intelligence
Integrated Analytics & Optimisation Platform
The Business Engine
A business intelligence platform that delivers deep, integrated insight across your entire facility — connecting cultivation, operational, financial, and compliance data into unified, real-time analysis.
Why This Matters
Traditional systems analyse cultivation OR operations OR finances in isolation. Our platform uniquely integrates all these data streams, providing complete facility intelligence that enables faster, better-informed decisions than any other system can deliver. You finally see how everything in your facility connects and affects everything else.
How we apply this:
- Holistic Intelligence: A single platform that holds the complete picture — cultivation, operations, finance, and compliance — so every domain is understood in the context of all the others, never in isolation.
- Multi-Stakeholder Visibility: CEOs see financial and operational impact, Head Growers see cultivation optimisation, Operations see efficiency metrics, Compliance sees regulatory status — all drawn from the same integrated data, presented for each audience.
- Insight, Not Autopilot: Deliberately designed to inform rather than control. The platform delivers instant, cultivation-driven insights across cultivation, technical, financial, operational, and compliance domains — so the person in charge always has exactly what they need to make the right call.
- Cross-Domain Data Correlation: Connects cultivation variables to financial outcomes, operational efficiency to compliance requirements, and quality metrics to cost performance — every insight carries full business context.
- Unprecedented Decision Speed: The depth and breadth of integrated data means decisions that would previously take days of cross-referencing can be made in minutes — with greater confidence and less risk.
- Time & Cost Savings: By surfacing the right information to the right people and eliminating manual cross-referencing, the platform measurably reduces management overhead and operational waste.
- Predictive Performance Analytics: Identify yield trends, operational issues, financial impacts, and compliance risks before they manifest — moving from reactive management to proactive control.
- Context-Aware Insights: Every analysis considers cultivation science, operational reality, financial constraints, and compliance requirements simultaneously — no blind spots, no siloed thinking.
