Oct 25 Tech Talk: SWIIM Discusses Innovative Water Solutions

SWIIM System will lead a Tech Talk seminar on October 25, 2016, to explain and demonstrate how its innovative technology can help farmers increase net income by efficiently planning, managing and tracking their crop-water budget.

SWIIM’s turn-key solution allows it to act as its client’s on-farm water accountant, enabling agricultural water users to optimize water rights, monitor the crop-water budget, conserve water and increase net income by leasing a provable, newly-identified source of conserved water. This is done while preserving farm revenue, without compromising the underlying water right/allocation. Its patented process plans and monitors crop-water budgets with greater accuracy and provides producer- and field-specific data that can be aggregated for the water manager on a system-wide basis.

During the Tech Talk, SWIIM will help answer questions on what to look for in a water use analytics platform. SWIIM’s technology is especially important in water-starved states like California and the firm has developed a partnership with Western Growers to help farmers conserve more water and simultaneously earn money for the water they don’t use. Additionally, SWIIM has recently joined the WG Center for Innovation & Technology to bolster its presence in California and collaborate with other innovators to learn how agtech companies can work together to further advance agriculture.
