Across the board, Agrology measured extreme levels of soil water deficit and found that irrigation could sometimes be ineffective due to the severity of the drought.

Key Points: 
  • Across the board, Agrology measured extreme levels of soil water deficit and found that irrigation could sometimes be ineffective due to the severity of the drought.
  • Agrology reported that up until harvest, soil moisture and water deficit impacts from the drought appeared significant across Napa and Sonoma.
  • For reference, the University of California recommends initiating irrigation at midday leaf water potential of 1,000-1,500 kPa, corresponding to pre-dawn soil water potential of 1,800-2,300 ko.
  • Underground, the Agrology soil probes tracked volumetric moisture, soil water potential, soil conductivity, and soil temperature.

Overall, in 2021 Agrology measured low smoke exposure in vineyards and measured brief Air Quality Index (AQI) events likely due to wildfires.

Key Points: 
  • Overall, in 2021 Agrology measured low smoke exposure in vineyards and measured brief Air Quality Index (AQI) events likely due to wildfires.
  • Agrology also pulls satellite imagery to visually verify smoke presence over regions, then alerts customers immediately when smoke is detected.
  • The major smoke exposure events this season resulted from distant wildfire smoke, which posed less risk of smoke taint.
  • While Agrology is thrilled to share its industry report today, the company knows that granular data is critical for growers.
