AROYA announces truly intelligent irrigation

Truly intelligent auto-irrigation is here

The cannabis industry’s first truly intelligent automatic irrigation system is here, thanks to AROYA’s powerful AUTOMAIT™ and IRRIGAIT™ AI systems.

AUTOMAIT and IRRIGAIT use extensive real-time data from AROYA’s sensor ecosystem to translate grower’s intent into responsive, perfectly executed irrigation.

Growers simply set the slider to indicate their current cultivation intentions, from generative to vegetative. AROYA then irrigates as needed to create the intended growth.

Intelligent Irrigation is radically different from current “intelligent” systems. Others rely on imprecise VWC setpoints, triggering irrigation only when the substrate hits a pre-set dryness level, with no regard for field capacity. Unlike those, Intelligent Irrigation’s AUTOMAIT AI analyzes runoff every three minutes, generating precise, accurate, real-time field capacity data. It then intelligently triggers custom irrigation based on current field capacity, grower intent, and current nutrient conditions in the root zone. With a system this well-informed and responsive, there’s simply no need for schedules or set points.

AUTOMAIT, the AI that powers Intelligent Irrigation, learns and makes decisions based on local data only. AROYA takes grower privacy seriously – their data belongs to them alone, and is never used to train outside models.

As of December 2024, Intelligent Irrigation is an Early Access feature, available by request only. It is slated for public access mid-2025. Learn more and request access here.
