Are your blocks getting as much water as you think? According to new data, not likely.
Download Closing the Execution Gap and discover how block-level irrigation data is helping premium vineyards dial in their precision—protecting their crop, improving their fruit quality, and boosting their bottom line.
High irrigation variability is costing growers thousands of dollars an acre.
This report presents first-of-its-kind block-level irrigation data from over 4,500 irrigation events across hundreds of premium vineyard blocks during the 2024 growing season. The findings show that irrigation system performance is highly variable—1 in 10 irrigations miss by 50% or more, while 3 in 4 miss by 10% or more—making it difficult for growers to reliably deliver planned water volumes.
This variability results in an Irrigation Execution Gap—the difference between intended and actual water applied, and is estimated to be costing growers $1,000-$5,000/acre every year in lost yield, worse fruit quality, and wasted labor.

Find out how to close the gap and drive greater profitability.
The good news is that this report also highlights four data-driven strategies growers can adopt to increase their precision by over 50%, improving fruit quality and lowering their risk.
In a world where water is scarce, labor is expensive, and margins are thin, continuing to operate without block-level visibility caps crop potential and hurts the long-term viability of every operation.
Closing the execution gap, ensuring every block gets the right amount of water, is an economic and agronomic imperative.
