Lindsay Corporation has several new irrigation products coming out to help growers improve productivity and conserve resources.
The Zimmatic 9500 pivot is coming to North America this fall. The high-speed pivot will allow growers to operate at up to twice the speed of a standard center drive motor, according to the company. Ideal for root crops such as potatoes, onions and carrots, its quicker water application is said to help maintain moisture during germination and protect crops from heat.
The next generation of Zimmatic controllers are launching globally by the end of the year. Features include remote monitoring and control capabilities, smart barrier automation, custom irrigation program options, smart alignment, and more end-gun areas and management capabilities.
Also expected by the end of the year, Zimmatic’s new 9520 pivoting lateral is built to irrigate more land with maximum flexibility. The pivoting lateral is billed as an option on large, irregular-shaped fields where multiple traditional center pivot and lateral-move systems may not be cost effective.
