Efficient irrigation practices are vital to enhancing agricultural productivity. Recognizing this critical role, especially given the significant investments in micro-irrigation systems, every grower needs a water partner they can depend on. Meras Water Solutions is that partner.
Specializing in providing customized water treatment solutions for growers, Meras actively addresses the challenges posed by poor water quality. This poor quality, including physical (grit), biological fouling, mineral deposits (scale-forming salts), along with environmental factors such as time and temperature, disrupts the operational efficiency of irrigation systems. By implementing advanced water treatment technologies with service and conducting regular checks of the micro-irrigation system, Meras ensures that crops receive the precise blend of water and nutrients they need for optimal growth and flourishing yields. Efficient irrigation practices like this help growers gain the best returns on their substantial investments.
Dan Lindberg, CEO of Meras Water Solutions, emphasizes the company's proactive approach, “We constantly measure, test, adjust, and repeat that process throughout the growing season to ensure that we are keeping irrigation systems free of any organic or inorganic matter that could impact the overall crop yield and health.”
Using this strategic approach, instead of a reactive one, has helped Meras manage approximately 180,000 acres of drip irrigation across various crop types and irrigation systems in California. Meras excels at managing distribution uniformity of newly installed and existing systems, including addressing and restoring micro irrigation systems to their original design flow rate.
Going Beyond Water Treatment with Meras
As an industry leader, Meras Water Solutions is a valuable resource for growers, offering the necessary data and insights to make informed business decisions tailored to their specific needs. Having just celebrated its 20th anniversary, Meras Water Solutions has over 10 years of historical data on several different water types, micro irrigation delivery systems, crop types, and trends that help growers strategize and make good water-related decisions. By sharing accumulated information and success stories, Meras offers insights based on similar data points customized to suit growers' regions and operational needs. This approach demonstrates Meras's effectiveness in maintaining irrigation systems at peak performance.
The company takes a meticulous and hands-on approach to each operation, analyzing the drip irrigation system, conducting distribution uniformity tests, and inspecting emitters for potential mineral and biological issues. By collaborating with growers to develop customized and economically viable programs, Meras is a proactive partner that ensures the implementation of targeted strategies to maintain optimal performance and cleanliness in any system.
Results that Hold Water
Measuring their successes, Meras Water Solutions has proven itself indispensable to growers, successfully increasing distribution uniformity scores for clients. Meras performs anywhere from 700-900 D.U. tests annually. Most recently, Meras successfully increased the D.U. score for a client with a block of almonds from .65 percent to .85 percent through remediation. Generally, upon reaching the .85 percent improvement, Meras can sustain this level by implementing a rigorous, customizable maintenance program. Each time the grower irrigates, Meras’s products and technology help prevent the D.U. score from reverting to .65 percent while safeguarding the crop yield from potential adverse effects.
This commitment to maintaining and increasing improvements over time is unmatched in the industry. Lindberg adds, “Our ultimate goal is to assist individual growers and raise awareness about potential inefficiencies on their ranches, particularly concerning irrigation system performance, distribution uniformity, and water quality. By addressing these aspects, we seek to highlight their impact on yield, ROI, and overall operational success.”
Safety Always Comes First
Focused on pre and post-harvest food safety rules, regulations, and risk control, Meras Water Solutions prioritizes environmentally friendly chemistries and is prominent in addressing food-borne and waterborne pathogens. The company's dedicated team consistently offers informed recommendations to growers including compliance with third-party audits, regulatory bodies, leafy green marketing agreements (LGMA), and FDA audits.
And a Meras partnership does not end there. Meras’s experienced team offers a comprehensive understanding of each service level, encompassing equipment installations, irrigation system maintenance, and sales. By implementing new technology and understanding the importance of a “boots on the ground” approach, the versatile service team regularly visits operations to diligently monitor and track water application, product usage, and feed rates that help improve grower yield. All of this information is gathered from each feed location, collected, and shared in an easy-to-read drip service report.
As a service-driven company operating in California and Arizona, Meras Water Solutions prioritizes customer satisfaction and innovation. Its service model and products assist growers in achieving sustainable and efficient water solutions across various regions. For growers seeking reliable and effective water treatment outcomes, Meras Water Solutions is a partner you can trust.
