Know What Every Block Needs — Today
You already know your fields. We give you the instrumentation to monitor what matters, optimize where it counts, and automate the routine — so every decision is grounded in real field data, not a regional average.
The problem we solve
You can't see soil water status from the cab. Regional ET estimates and a calendar don't tell you what this block needs today. Woodpecker puts field-specific soil, plant, and weather data under every irrigation and operations decision — and ties it to the valves and meters in the ground — so you save water, lift yields, and keep the records compliance needs, without driving the perimeter to find out what's going on. You don't get another dashboard to check — you get the answer: what a block needs today, and what your pumping is actually costing per acre-foot.
What We Deliver
The field-specific data layer underneath every irrigation and operations decision — all of it on one platform, Iris Central.
Single- and multi-depth soil moisture (VWC and matric potential), dendrometers, IR canopy stress sensors, and on-site weather — the data layer your decisions actually sit on.
Refine timing and volume from field-specific soil, plant, and weather signals — to save water, lift yields, and replace regional averages with what your fields actually show. For operations where irrigation is an economic decision, not just a compliance one.
Compliance-grade flow monitoring and automated reporting where GSAs and water districts mandate it — handled in the background, defensible when asked.
Tie monitoring directly to valve and pump control — schedule, trigger, and adjust without driving out to every site.

How It Connects
Most vendors make you adapt to their one wireless technology. Woodpecker designs the network around your operation — using whatever keeps each field, well, and valve reliably connected, even across acreage where cellular coverage is poor.
We adapt the communications to your operation — not the other way around.
Why Growers Choose Woodpecker
What this block needs today — not a regional estimate that misses your soil and microclimate.
Irrigate to need — lower water and energy cost, with yield protected where it counts.
Flowmeter reporting runs in the background and holds up when an agency or district asks.
Schedule and adjust valves and pumps remotely — automation that saves windshield time.
