Case Studies
Real results from real installations. Every page carries its own source documents, and says plainly what was measured and what was not.
Each entry is labelled a Trial, a Case Study or a Field Testimonial, so you know what kind of evidence you are reading before you read the numbers. The full reports, transcripts and videos are attached to every page. For anything not here yet, contact us and we'll send it directly.
New Age Laboratories · Butter Lettuce Trial
Replicated outdoor trial on butter lettuce. Vortex-irrigated plots took up 97% more manganese and finished the season effectively free of aphids, with no pesticide applied at any point, against controls carrying 500 to 1,000+ aphids per plant.

The Western Australian Golf Club · Hand Watering Trial
Superintendent Idris Evans put a PW75 on the hose to deal with hot spots. Areas being hand watered once or twice a day went to once every one or two weeks.
Read the full case studyThe Western Australian Golf Club · Irrigation Upgrade
An 8 inch and a 10 inch unit went in during May 2026 as part of a multi-million dollar irrigation upgrade, driven by a 10% cut to the club's water license from 2028. Water, pump efficiency, labor, hardware and fertilizer are all being monitored.

Marri Park Golf Course
Twelve months of bore (well) meter data on a Bassendean sand course. Usage fell 30.1% against a three-year average, and the course carried out no returfing for the first time in four years.

Touchwood Nursery
A 15-acre wholesale nursery south of Perth reports saving 15 million liters, 16.85% of its annual license, over the 12 months to May 2026. These are the site's own figures from a signed letter, not a controlled trial.

2025-2026 Organic Tomato Trial · Gov't of W. Australia
Vortex-only bed +23% yield, vortex plus scalar bed +141% yield, stem tissue Brix up 500 to 550%, all on 18% less water, with a 194% increase in water productivity over the control.

City of Armadale · Gwynne Park
A 4.7-hectare council sporting precinct on 1974 infrastructure, running at 130% of its water license. Metered bore (well) usage fell 8,261 kL in the first full year after install, and the turf came through summer for the first time in years.

Curtin University — Midland Campus
Waterwise university held to 2-day-per-week watering. Healthier turf through a 38°C summer with no extra irrigation — they bought more units.
Imperial Produce — Simon Walker
Seven-year drought, poor-quality bore (well) water. Lab Brix on baby spinach tripled the control. Units still running five years on.
Torrisi Watermelons
Supermarket buyer called to compliment, not complain. Brix levels 40% above the chain's minimum acceptable threshold.
Hutterian Brethren Colonies
Multiple colony installations across agricultural operations in Canada. Documented improvements in crop yield, water efficiency, and soil biology across diverse cropping systems.
City of Cockburn
Active installation across public facilities. Reduced irrigation demand while maintaining public green space presentation and meeting Water Corporation requirements.
Arthur Cornwall · Canterbury Dairy
Seven seasons on the same equipment, six years after install. Pump draw down about 19%, nitrogen more than halved, and soil wetting to the full depth of a 250mm probe where it previously stopped at 150mm.
Read the full case studyLeAnn Demasi · Pumpkin Grower
A grower who ran the unit as a deliberate stress test, withholding nitrogen entirely to see what the water alone would carry. The crop still met retail size spec on roughly half the water of a side-by-side control paddock.
Read the full case studyDean Sanders · Grazing Property
A grazier reports cutting irrigation from nightly to twice weekly while nearly doubling stocking on the same hectare, with no fertilizer applied. Entirely self-reported, with no meters and no control paddock.

An organic dairy salvaged 300 vole-destroyed acres with a late corn planting and no fertilizer budget left. The crop emerged in a week and reached full maturity despite going in two weeks late.

A California strawberry grower describes a gradient in Brix, berry size and plant vigour running down the field from a buried structuring unit. Entirely verbal, with no instrument readouts or sampling protocol shown.

An eight-acre diversified farm drawing from the Yakima River and a private well, with two units fitted. Reported improvements across soil texture, crop recovery, livestock water clarity and household plumbing, all observational.
