What is the DU and ROI Estimator?
The DU & ROI Estimator is a software developed by irrigation specialists Inge Bisconer (Surf n’Earth Enterprises) and Jim Anshutz (AgH20), that enables a field technician with nominal training to improve irrigation efficiency through this process:
- Conduct a DU analysis on drip/micro, tape and stationary sprinkler irrigation systems.
- Identify specific irrigation system deficiencies
- Generate reports estimating the economic value of improving the existing DU performance and equipment component deficiencies discovered.
- Provide an estimated Return on Investment (ROI) analysis, in $/acre and $/field based on the grower’s preferred ROI timeframe.
