We extend our commitment to innovation beyond the nursery and into the field using real-time data, AI scouting, and precision water management to support long-term vineyard success.

Here’s how we’re integrating technology into our field operations:

AI-Powered Scouting

Tellia

Tellia is a voice-driven observation platform that captures and organizes field data instantly. Observations are securely stored and fully searchable. Need to know where a specific weed or issue was identified? Simply ask, and Tellia retrieves every relevant entry complete with location, timestamp, and notes. It transforms scouting from note-taking into actionable intelligence.

Precision Irrigation

Hortau

Using soil tension probes and automated irrigation programming, the Hortau system allows us to irrigate based on real-time soil moisture data. This ensures optimal crop health while significantly improving water-use efficiency.

Aerial Technology

Drones and Imaging

These tools allow us to detect variability early, respond faster, and make informed management decisions. This results in stronger vines, smarter use of resources and better vineyard outcomes.

• Spray drones for targeted, efficient applications
• Thermal imaging to identify plant stress before it’s visible
• Multispectral imaging for accurate field estimates and crop assessment

At Sunridge Nurseries, we don’t believe technology replaces experience but simply enhances it. As you plan your next planting or assess your vineyard strategy, partner with us to discover how Sunridge seamlessly integrates cutting-edge technology with seasoned, hands-on expertise.
