Case Study: Netafim achieves water savings and precision irrigation with Tomorrow.io

Saving Water by the Raindrop

Netafim, the 50‑year pioneer of precision drip irrigation and creator of the NetBeat™ digital farming platform, needed hyper-local, high-frequency weather data to feed its Dynamic Crop Models and deliver real-time, farm-specific irrigation recommendations to save water and inputs. To solve this, Netafim partnered with Tomorrow.io and integrated Tomorrow.io’s MicroWeather forecasts and API to provide ground‑level, by‑the‑minute precipitation intensity, classification and other weather parameters.

Tomorrow.io’s high‑resolution temperature, humidity, wind and precipitation data are fed into NetBeat™, enabling hectare‑level irrigation programs, on‑the‑go adjustments, crop‑specific alerts and timely frost‑mitigation actions. By integrating Tomorrow.io, Netafim has improved the accuracy of its Dynamic Crop Models, reduced water and input use, better prevented weather‑related crop damage, and delivered measurable resource savings and improved profitability for farmers.
