- Vine nursery beds. Closely spaced sprinklers or micro-sprinklers for young plant material that needs frequent, light watering. See Micro Irrigation Systems.
- New vineyard establishment. Drip planned for mature vines and laid out before or just after planting. See Vineyard Irrigation.
- Valves and controllers. Solenoid valves and controllers so many short cycles run without someone opening valves by hand. See Irrigation Automation.
- Breakdowns. Leaks, faulty valves and pressure problems. See Farm Irrigation Repairs.
Site Conditions in Wellington
- Frequent cycles. Nursery irrigation switches valves many times a day, so valve quality and controller capacity count.
- Young versus mature vines. Dripper spacing is chosen for the full-grown vine, even if young plants need less water at first.
- Mixed water sources. Farm dams, scheme water and boreholes each need a different filtration approach.
- Soil changes. Lighter and heavier soils on the same farm change dripper spacing and run times.
Requesting Prices
Nursery and establishment work is planned well before planting, so ask for quotes early in the off-season. Include the bed or block layout, how many valves you want and how the pump is powered.

Controller quotes depend on the number of stations and whether the pump and filters are tied in.

Agricultural Irrigation Wellington FAQs
What irrigation suits a vine nursery?
Nursery beds need even, frequent watering, so contractors often quote closely spaced sprinklers or micro-sprinklers on automatic valves. Share the bed sizes and water source.
Should drip go in before or after planting vines?
Many growers lay the mainline and submains before planting and fix laterals to the trellis once it is up. Agree the order with the installer so water is ready when the vines go in.
Can I automate an existing manual system?
Often, by fitting solenoid valves at the current valve positions and adding a controller. Contractors check cable distances and whether a remote controller is worth it.
