At Pridham Viticulture, we are proud to introduce advanced moisture monitoring services, designed to revolutionise the way you manage water in your vineyard. By leveraging cutting-edge technology, we help you make informed decisions about irrigation, ensuring your vines receive the optimal amount of water for healthy growth and premium-quality fruit.
How It Works
We install 80cm moisture probes equipped with eight highly accurate sensors. These sensors measure moisture levels at various depths within the soil, providing a detailed view of your vineyard’s water profile. With integrated cellular connectivity, the probes consistently transmit real-time data to GreenBrain, a user-friendly platform accessible via desktop or mobile devices.
As part of this service, we also offer ongoing monitoring and maintenance under an annual service contract. This ensures your system remains in peak condition and that any necessary adjustments are made proactively to maintain efficiency and performance.

Moisture monitoring with Pridham Viticulture offers several key advantages:
- Optimised Water Use: By understanding your vineyard’s exact water requirements, you can reduce overwatering or underwatering, leading to better vine health and water conservation.
