WaterRun every block from one screen.
No more sending a crew to every valve. Water Stewards automates irrigation for California almonds, pistachios, wine grapes, citrus, and other permanent crops. Valves run on schedule, you can catch leaks and frost early, and your water use is on record — on MAIT technology field-tested for nearly 30 years.
What changes when your irrigation runs itself
Built for permanent crops, where labor, water, and a single frost night all carry real costs.
Cut the labor of changing sets
Valves, pumps, and filters open, close, and run on schedule by themselves — no crew driving block to block to change sets, day or night.
See how efficiently every block is irrigating
Track pressure, flow, and soil moisture in every block to confirm water is going where it should, then fine-tune schedules to cut wasted water and power.
Catch leaks and frost before they cost you
Set alerts for leaks, breaks, and pressure drops so you hear about problems when they happen — not days later when someone drives by — and let the system start frost protection automatically when temperatures drop.
Records you can share with owners, investors, and your GSA
Irrigation events and water readings are recorded on the platform. Export total water use by valve or by field to share with owners, investors, or your groundwater sustainability agency.
Own it. Don't rent it.
You buy the hardware and software once, and it's yours. There's no required subscription to keep your system running — and you still get full functionality: control, data, and support. Everything runs from a base station you own and can log into remotely.
Battle-tested, 30 years in the field
MAIT's platform has supported growers in Australia for nearly three decades. Water Stewards brings that same technology to American growers, with local install, service, and support.
