Solving Uneven Coverage: A Lateral Irrigation
At Upland AG, most of our projects start the same way — a local farmer calls because their current irrigation setup just isn’t keeping up anymore. That was the case with a recent project outside of Madras, Oregon, where an aging system was creating uneven coverage and higher energy costs during a critical part of the growing season.
After walking the fields and talking through the operation’s needs, we recommended upgrading to a Reinke pivot system paired with updated pump and VFD controls. The goal was simple: improve water efficiency, reduce stress on the equipment, and give the grower a system they could rely on day after day.
Our team handled the full process — from system design and equipment sourcing to installation and testing. Once everything was up and running, the difference was immediate. Coverage was more consistent, pressure was more controlled, and the operation gained a setup built to handle real Central Oregon conditions.
Projects like this are why we do what we do. As local farmers ourselves, we know irrigation isn’t just equipment — it’s what keeps your fields productive and your season on track. Whether it’s a new installation, system upgrade, or dependable irrigation service, we’re here to help Central Oregon farms keep water moving when it matters most.
