Tom Rogers'  117 acre almond orchard has been in the family since 1917. His father began closely monitoring soil moisture levels to better manage water on the property several decades ago. Today, Rogers continues the family tradition - monitoring the weather and soil moisture levels with a Pure Sense system. While he has reduced water use in some fields by as much as 20% he has also seen better yields, which he attributes to his water management.
