Case Study: Ranchbot Achieves Remote Water Management Savings with SKYWAVE

Ranchbot saves 30 trips and $150,000 with SKYWAVE

Ranchbot, a provider of agricultural monitoring solutions, faced the challenge of helping ranchers efficiently manage remote water sources across vast, often cellular-deprived lands. The traditional method of manually checking water troughs was extremely time-consuming, costly, and risked livestock loss if a failure went undetected. Partnering with SKYWAVE, Ranchbot sought a reliable connectivity solution to provide ranchers with constant visibility and control.

By integrating SKYWAVE's satellite IoT modems into its products, Ranchbot gained reliable 24/7/365 connectivity, enabling remote monitoring and control of water pumps and valves. This solution delivered significant results, including substantial cost savings from reduced manual checks; one ranch, Roaring Springs, reported saving approximately $150,000. The partnership provided ranchers with peace of mind, operational efficiency, and a more sustainable approach to water management.
