Automation and Controls
The difference between scheduled irrigation and responsive irrigation is data. Delta supplies and installs the controllers, sensors, autonomous systems, and farm-wide platforms that move an operation from reactive to precise. Pivots, drip blocks, orchards, vineyards, row crops, and greenhouses each have a different right answer. Our designers spec the technology to the operation, our team handles the install, and our branches are here when you need service.
PIVOT AUTOMATION
B-Hyve Ag
B-Hyve Ag controls and monitors pivot irrigation from any phone or browser. A long-range Wi-Fi base station at your shop broadcasts to every pivot across the operation, with no cellular subscriptions. Compatible with Reinke, Valley, and Zimmatic panels. Tower safety alerts, pump monitoring, and pivot history logs keep you ahead of failures rather than reacting to them. Built to retrofit existing pivots, not replace them.
DRIP AND SPRINKLER AUTOMATION
Toro Tempus Ag
Toro Tempus Ag is the wireless control system we install for growers who want every valve, pump, and sensor on their phone. One base station covers a one-mile radius, and the network grows as you add more. Field controllers run a full season on 9-volt batteries, with no trenched wire to remote valves. Push notifications flag flow, pressure, or moisture issues the moment they happen. IP68-rated and built to hold up where lesser controllers fail.
FARM-WIDE IRRIGATION PLATFORMS
Wiseconn DropControl
When the operation gets large enough that valves, pumps, sensors, fertigation, and imagery need to live on one platform, Wiseconn is what we install. DropControl monitors and automates irrigation across blocks, integrates soil moisture and weather data, runs fertigation programs, and pulls in NDVI imagery for crop health. Half a million acres run on it globally. Built for serious vineyard, orchard, and large mixed operations that want one system, not five.
SOIL AND CLIMATE MONITORING
Agurotech
Agurotech soil sensors measure moisture, temperature, and humidity directly in the root zone, then deliver irrigation, frost, and spray recommendations through one app. Growers using the system report yield gains and irrigation rounds avoided in the first season. Frost alerts, a digital rain gauge, and 10-day forecasts make this more than a moisture probe. It is decision-support tech for growers who want to stop guessing.
AUTONOMOUS IRRIGATION
360 Rain through West Coast Robotics
360 Rain is an autonomous, three-wheeled irrigation vehicle that runs itself across the field. It covers irregular field shapes that pivots cannot reach, delivers full corner-to-corner coverage, and operates on wells with 75 percent less flow than a traditional pivot. It also applies nitrogen, micronutrients, and liquid manure precisely at the root zone. Delta supplies 360 Rain in partnership with West Coast Robotics.

Not Sure Where to Start?
Five platforms is a lot of choice. The right one depends on your crop, your operation size, and what you already have in the ground. Call your nearest Delta branch and our designers will walk through it with you.
