The Weenat app puts the key indicators in your hands to manage your irrigation with precision. Connected to your Tensiometric Probes, Capacitive Probes or Fertigation Probes, it transforms soil moisture data into concrete decisions: when to irrigate, how much water to apply, when to stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five essential features, one single app:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            This is the latest feature added to the Weenat app. And it changes the way you read your irrigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Between the kPa readings of Tensiometers and the volumetric moisture percentages of Capacitive Probes, data can quickly become difficult to interpret, especially at the start of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            The Available Water Reservoir solves this problem: it translates your probe measurements in real time into millimetres of water available for your crops<\/strong>, at the exact depth where your sensors are installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n

            Why millimetres?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            It is the unit common to both meteorology and water balances. By thinking in mm, you directly compare what remains in your soil with what rainfall will bring or what ETP will consume. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            No more converting: you see the deficit and apply exactly what is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            A soil model built on 4 years of R&D<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            The calculation is based on a model developed from thousands of soil samples<\/strong> taken from pilot farms representative of the main French and European texture types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            For each texture, Weenat has identified two key values: field capacity (pF 2, i.e. approximately 10 kPa) and the permanent wilting point (pF 4.2). These two boundaries define the Readily Available Water,<\/strong> and a retention coefficient specific to each texture converts your probe data into mm with no configuration required on your part. You can however refine the model by entering your soil texture to gain even more precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
