Boom Irrigation
Boom Irrigation
Water large growing areas efficiently with automated boom irrigation systems designed for greenhouse bench production. These overhead systems travel along rails above benches, delivering uniform water application across hundreds or thousands of containers while eliminating the time and inconsistency of manual watering.
Use boom irrigation systems to:
• Water entire bench areas automatically with uniform overhead application
• Eliminate labor spent dragging hoses or hand-watering containers
• Apply precise water volumes through adjustable nozzles and travel speeds
• Cover multiple bench bays with a single boom traveling on rails
• Integrate with fertigation for combined water and nutrient deliver
Why boom irrigation matters
Manual watering of bench production is one of the most time-consuming tasks in greenhouse operations. Workers spend hours dragging hoses, and application is rarely uniform—some pots get too much water while others stay dry. Boom irrigation transforms this labor bottleneck into an automated operation. A single boom can cover 10,000+ square feet of benches, delivering consistent application in a fraction of the time. The labor saved pays for the system quickly, while improved uniformity reduces crop variability and waste. For operations with significant bench production, booms are often the highest-ROI automation investment.
Boom systems for efficient production
From single-rail booms for smaller operations to multi-boom installations covering entire greenhouses, AdeptAg offers boom irrigation solutions matched to your facility layout and production scale. Systems feature adjustable-height booms to accommodate different crop sizes, interchangeable nozzles for various flow rates, and variable speed controls for precise water application. Rail systems integrate with existing bench layouts, and programmable controllers automate watering schedules. Built with corrosion-resistant materials and engineered for reliable operation in greenhouse environments, these systems deliver consistent performance with minimal maintenance.
