You’ve just enjoyed your breakfast. Do you know what your pivot is doing? Is it running as you set it? Did it stop overnight? You’re ready for that second cup of coffee and you haven’t been out to check the pivot yet. How is that possible?  

There was a time when you climbed into the pickup and drove from pivot to pivot to make sure they were running—several times a day. Today, remote monitoring has changed all that, and your productivity is better than ever.  

Whether you’re managing two pivots or 20, the irrigation technology of today lets you see what’s happening in every field from any of your smart devices. You have the power to start or stop a pivot, keep an eye on water usage, receive notifications and make smart irrigation choices wherever you are.  

Fewer trips to check the pivots, better use of water, and more time spent where you want or need to be—that sounds like mastering productivity.

Real Results

Mark Gross farms more than 10,000 acres outside Spokane, Wash. He grows seed potatoes, wheat, barley, hay, silage and more. Mark is a longtime Reinke user and has relied on ReinCloud® with ESAC™ and SAC VRI to irrigate his high-cash crops accurately for years. Two years ago, Mark added CropX® soil sensors to the mix, and it’s changed how he manages water across every field.  

“We’ve gone down to almost a quarter of the water in certain zones and we’re raising a better crop. Every field that’s getting irrigated should have a soil sensor,” stated Mark.  

Farming in a region with water restrictions, Mark knows firsthand how much it matters to use every resource wisely. Beyond the water and energy savings, he’s just as impressed with the quality of his final product.

“We’ve got a better crop – and a better crop with less water,“ he said. “Healthier crops grown with less water can be stored for longer periods of time.”

Command Center

ReinCloud is the web-based remote management platform of Reinke and your command center for precision irrigation. It puts you in complete control of your irrigation systems anytime, from any smart device, without ever leaving your tractor cab or living room.  

  • ‍Remote pivot control -start, stop, and adjust your systems from anywhere
  • Multi-machine management - monitor and manage more than 100 pivots at once with real-time status updates
  • Fewer field visits - deliver water exactly where it’s needed without the guesswork

The technology in your Reinke system keeps your irrigation application accurate and overall operation more efficient. Working together, they hook you up with recommendations tailored to boost profits and reduce wasteful resource consumption.

Seamless Integration

Looking to enhance your Reinke irrigation system with more data? Don’t look any further. ReinCloud seamlessly integrates with every Reinke system. And, if you want even more information, our partnership with CropX provides further details of what is happening in your fields. Now you know what’s going on above and below the soil.

Reinke teamed up with CropX in 2020, bringing together two global leaders in agriculture. The partnership now supports growers in more than 40 countries, pairing Reinke’s irrigation systems with CropX’s agricultural and soil sensing technology.  

“Our dedication to helping growers produce more with less is part of the reason we partnered with CropX,” said Chris Roth, president of Reinke.

What this collaboration delivers for you:

  • Integrated, reliable precision irrigation application products
  • Advanced water scheduling and monitoring technologies
  • A dedicated dealer network and expert support team

Reinke Direct ET™ by CropX measures actual crop evapotranspiration in real time, giving you a precise, science-based read on exactly what your crops are using. The CropX soil monitoring sensor gathers:

  • Soil moisture status and crop behavior patterns
  • Soil health indicators, including salinity and nitrogen levels
  • Optimal timing and placement for chemical applications

All of that intelligence comes to you through maps and aerial imagery, weather data and predictive modeling, and CropX’s patented soil sensing technology—all inside ReinCloud.  

“Seeing the data from the physical sensor in the ground is the best benefit. This almost real-time data helps me plan my next irrigation and see the effects of rainfall,” said BillMize, a grower in Deshler, Neb.

Achieve game-changing decisions, save resources, and boost your profits season after season with this highly connected system.

Built for Precision

Your center pivot irrigation system is the foundation making all of this possible. Reinke center pivot systems combine automation, GPS, and remote control in order for you to monitor and adjust irrigation from anywhere, anytime - which matters a lot when conditions change fast.

  • Variable Rate Irrigation (VRI) splits your field into zones and applies different irrigation rates based on what each area actually needs. Field studies have shown VRI management can meaningfully cut prescribed irrigation compared to uniform treatments, while holding yields steady.
  • Electronic Swing Arm Corner (ESAC) maximizes coverage on oddly shaped fields and unirrigated corners, and water gets distributed evenly across every acre you farm.
  • GPS-Guided Automation delivers precise, repeatable passes that account for field variation and eliminate overlap or gaps in coverage.

With these features, you can maximize the performance of each crop you grow.

Putting Technology toWork

Every irrigation decision comes down to three simple questions.  

Right Time
  • What’s happening in the field—are there soil or moisture variances?
  • Am I watering at the right time?
Right Amount
  • Are you using crop and weather data for decisions?
  • Am I applying the amount of water needed?
Right Location
  • Is the water delivered to where it’s actually needed—not where it isn’t?
  • Do I avoid overwatering to save pumping costs and protect yields?

When you combine the Three R’s, it shifts you from reacting to problems after they happen—to taking the needed steps to manage your operation, supported by real data for every decision you make.  

Uniquely Yours

No two farms are the same—not the crops, not the land, not the challenges you’re up against. The Reinke product development team engineers solutions with all of that in mind, be it geography, soil type, field shape, and crop needs.

Who better to build farming products than actual growers? Their focus on practical results keeps the spotlight on what really matters. It’s your farm, so make it your own with customizable options like soil sensors, VRI technology, and Direct ET water management. Don’t be afraid to shake things up and let your operation evolve as you do.  

Ready to Get Started?

Technology has changed how you manage water, crops, and time—and the Three R’s give you the framework to put the technology to work. By pairing proven irrigation systems with smart data tools, Reinke helps you make every decision count and every resource go further.

With ReinCloud and CropX working together, you get a complete remote monitoring and precision irrigation system putting you in control from anywhere; responding to your land, conserving water, and keeping your operation running efficiently, while delivering healthier crops and higher yields.

Remote monitoring isn’t about adding more technology to your operation. It’s about making the technology you already own work harder for you. If you want to save time, improve irrigation efficiency, or just spend less time driving between fields, precision irrigation tools can help you achieve your goals all season long.  

Here’s some more great news—a lot of growers can easily incorporate remote monitoring into their current irrigation setups, without having to completely switch out their center pivot system.  

Talk with a Reinke dealer about the remote monitoring and precision irrigation choices that will suit your specific needs. Working together, you can create a solution to save time, conserve resources, and ensure every irrigation decision counts.
