EnviroSCAN™ is a powerful management tool for irrigators with a number of characteristics that set it apart from other irrigation management tools:

• It was conceived by agronomists and then designed by engineers
• It is only a means to an end; to collect data that can be used to determine the need for irrigation
  
• It has the backing of farmers; they invested in its development because they could see the potential for increasing yields, improving quality, saving power costs, reducing salinity effects on crops, and minimising seepage and damage to the environment
  
• The CSIRO Centre for Groundwater Studies has verified its accuracy

HOW IT WORKS

EnviroSCAN™ can be supplied to users in one of two forms:

• With software for irrigators who can handle computers, graphs and trend lines without assistance

• With support from Peter White Water Management for those who cannot or prefer not to do so unaided.
  

In both cases, EnviroSCAN™ software is an integral part of the system. A key feature is how the data are processed and displayed in ways, which help the irrigator make decisions relating to management of irrigations, and to cultural practices affecting crop production.
