OnFarm and Valley® Irrigation offer precision ag data exchange to growers.

Fresno CA November 14, 2014 – OnFarm is partnering with Valley_® Irrigation to seamlessly import precision irrigation data into its software platform, developing the next level of integrated farm management. The connection between OnFarm and Valley Irrigation Exchange™ will synchronize irrigation with other critical farm operations.

OnFarm is the first farm management system using Irrigation Exchange to receive and leverage precision ag data from BaseStation3™, the new Valley remote irrigation management product. The collaboration allows growers to control irrigation equipment and access irrigation data from within OnFarm, alongside other key information such as soil moisture, pesticide applications, field activities and mapping. Irrigation Exchange allows for data-driven decision-making and greater operational control.

“Valley has a tremendous reputation in agriculture and we’re excited to be the first company to integrate data from Valley Irrigation Exchange,” said Lance Donny, CEO of OnFarm. “Our partnership with Valley will help growers’ maximize valuable irrigation data from one of agriculture’s most trusted companies.”

Valley customers who choose OnFarm and Irrigation Exchange will see immediate benefits from the synchronization of their irrigation data with onFarm software. Growers will gain greater operational control by using the integrated precision ag data to develop plant-to-harvest strategies, manage costs and increase production.
