The problem

Good soil cannot make up for bad water.

Irrigation water quality is rarely checked, and when it is, it is usually checked once. Salinity, pH and dissolved solids can differ between sources and rise as water levels fall.

Without regular readings, growers see the crop effect, such as leaf burn, stunting or nutrient lockout, without knowing the cause.

What Soilo Water does

Water makes water quality a one-minute check you can repeat at every source, tank and drain.

The best soil management can be undone by poor water. Salinity builds up in the root zone, pH that is too high or too low affects what a plant can take up, and water sources change from season to season and from well to well.

Soilo Water is a hand-held meter that you dip into irrigation water, a nutrient solution or a water source to read its pH, EC, TDS, salinity and temperature on the spot. A pH buffer solution is shown with the kit for calibration.

Readings on their own are not instructions. They tell you something worth knowing before you irrigate, fertigate or choose a source, and they give your agronomist something concrete to work with.

Measures pH, EC, TDS, salinity and temperature of water or solution it is immersed in. It measures; it does not treat or correct the water.

How it works

5 steps from Soilo Water to a decision

  1. 1

    Calibrate

    Use the supplied pH buffer solution to calibrate as needed.

  2. 2

    Dip

    Immerse the probe in the water or nutrient solution.

  3. 3

    Read

    Read pH, EC, TDS, salinity and temperature from the display.

  4. 4

    Record

    Note readings by source and date for comparison.

  5. 5

    Decide

    Choose the source, adjust the solution or flag a problem to your agronomist.

Who it is for

Who should buy Soilo Water

Farmers using wells or borewells

To know what their water is carrying before it reaches the crop.

Hydroponic and greenhouse growers

To keep nutrient solutions in range.

Agronomists and crop consultants

To back advice with a measurement.

Irrigation and water managers

To compare sources and track change over time.

Environmental professionals and institutions

To carry out simple on-site water screening.

How it helps

  • Better understanding of irrigation-water quality.

Use cases

How people use it

A farmer checks a borewell before the season and again in peak summer to see whether salinity changes.

A hydroponic grower tests the reservoir every morning and adjusts before the plants feel it.

A consultant tests the irrigation water on a farm visit before recommending a fertiliser plan.
