About
Sustainability and Yields by Irrigation Efficiency
20 seasons helping farmers
​
By asking the market to drive development to successfully improve:
​
-
Irrigation efficiencies – that reduce overwatering – by as much as 50%​​​​​
-
Improve Nutrient Uptake
-
Sustain Profitability
-
-
Lowering costs of energy and chemicals
-
Increase farmable land, with empirically sustainable processes
WaterPoint’s Mission is to spread “D.I.R.T.”
(Dynamic Irrigation Recommendation Technologies)
​
on farms around the world – beginning in the Pacific Northwest and California
​
First, we Reduce irrigated water’s Surface Tension – Electronically – with an RF (radio frequency signa)
​
Secondly, we Remotely Monitor the treated water’s Movement in the Soil
​
Finally, we study the crop, soil, and irrigated water’s complex relationships – with spatial temporal sensor Data, to learn and apply dynamic Irrigation Scheduling strategies
​
Since its landmark “Wastewater “Percolation” project, in 2016 – when WaterPoint electronically treated Pivot-irrigated wastewater from the onion and potato processing plants, in Boardman, Or – and Monitored its infiltration in super sandy soil (they realized a 310% increase in added water in the top 36” over 21 days vs non-treated)
WaterPoint’s business development has focused on advanced studies, innovating the processes – packaging affordable solutions – advancing and fine-tuning integration practices – and developing IP transferable support mechanisms for its ever-evolving – industry disruptive – Product and Services offerings
​
Founded by Bill Terry of Salt Lake City, then Wenatchee, WA, now Cedar Mill, OR – Bill’s work in ag-technologies began in 2007, in the tree fruit industry – providing remote frost monitoring services to Wenatchee area apple growers
​
Entering his 20th season, working side by side and listening to farmers of blueberries, apples, and pears, pistachio, almonds, and citrus – as well as potatoes, wheat, corn, and onions – by 2026, WaterPoint is electronically treating over 20,000 acres in five Western states
​
At WaterPoint, the success of our growers begins by irrigating with treated-water – that has a persistently Reduced Surface Tension – that, measurably increases its infiltration and improves soil holding capacities and
Growers - now - may control a
“New Controllable”
Water Infiltration
WaterPoint is headquartered in Cedar Mill, OR, with a branch in Bellingham, WA
