Today I had a discussion with Nich Kenny, the owner and agriculture consultant at NPK Ag. Nich is a registered Professional Engineer with a broad agricultural background highlighted by on-site crop production and agronomy; water resource, energy, and environmental design; project management, and on-farm research. Specific professional expertise includes center pivot and subsurface drip irrigation systems and irrigation strategies, comprehensive field and produce crop production systems, and on-farm energy management.

We discussed the importance of soil moisture monitoring as it relates to optimization of crop yield, crop quality, and efficient use of water. We also discussed the primary benefits to farmers of using the GroGuru permanent installed soil monitoring system in broad acre row crops, the GroGuru solution’s ease of installation and ease of use, the GroGuru software and UI, and how GroGuru is a leap forward from competitive alternatives that require annual installation and removal.
