ABOUT

Built by farmers, run by family

Water Stewards is a family-owned irrigation technology company headquartered in San Luis Obispo, California, and serves as the U.S. partner for MAIT Industries, a global leader in irrigation automation and water management.

Why we started

Irrigation should be smarter, simpler, and more reliable. Water Stewards helps growers automate irrigation systems, monitor water use, and make informed decisions through integrated hardware, software, and sensor technology. The platform was developed by farmers, for farmers — built to solve real irrigation problems without unnecessary complexity or subscription costs.

Where we work

Headquartered in San Luis Obispo, California, Water Stewards supports agricultural operations across the state, from Bakersfield to Woodland, with irrigation control systems, monitoring technology, installation support, and ongoing service backed by real people who understand farming.

Leadership

Water Stewards is owned and run by the Evers family, with deep roots in California agriculture and water management.

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER

Matt Evers

Matt works directly with growers and dealers, out in the field for demos, installs, and support — the day-to-day face of Water Stewards for the customers and partners who work with us.

Battle-tested, 30 years in the field

MAIT Industries' platform has supported growers in Australia for nearly three decades. Water Stewards brings that proven technology to American growers, backed by local installation, service, and support.
