When it comes to adopting new irrigation technology, seeing is believing. That’s why we’re proud to share real world success stories from farms across New Zealand using nanobubble technology. From improved pasture performance to higher fruit yields and water savings, these farms have seen tangible benefits by integrating nanobubbles into their existing irrigation systems.
Whether you're running a dairy operation, vineyard, or berry farm, the case studies below highlight the proven potential of smarter water use powered by nanobubble technology.
Schrider Farms: Resilient pasture growth, even in drought
Location: Pātea, South Taranaki, NZ
System: Pivot irrigation with nanobubbles
Results:
47% higher dairy pasture yield in 2023–24
41% higher pasture yield in 2024–25 (during an official drought)
What the results show: These incredible gains occurred under dry, drought-declared conditions. The team at Schrider Farms used side-by-side comparisons and pasture plate data collection to confirm the benefits across nanobubble-irrigated areas versus control areas. The outcome? More feed for stock, greater confidence in irrigation ROI, and proof that nanobubbles deliver during challenging weather.
Henderson Farms: Insurance against brutal Nor’Westerlies
Location: Oxford, Canterbury, NZ
System: Pivot irrigation retrofitted with nanobubbles
Results:
Averaging 25-30% increased yield
Estimated 15-20% less water
What the results show: Henderson Farms installed the Nano i-Series system on a 100ha pivot to assess ROI in a commercial dairy setting. Farmers appreciated the seamless integration with their existing system and noticed significantly higher pasture yields for areas under treatment. The open days hosted here continue to provide valuable farmer-to-farmer insights about nanobubble technology in action.

Cloudy Bay Vineyards: Optimised water use in viticulture
Location: Marlborough, NZ
System: Drip irrigation with nanobubbles
Results:
8.4% higher bunch weight
20.1% increase in canopy density
8.7% higher Brix
What the results show: For premium wine producers like Cloudy Bay, optimised irrigation is key to grape quality. The introduction of nanobubbles allowed their team to target the root zone more effectively and utilise water more efficiently, especially during dry periods. Even in a drought season, nanobubble treatment led to improved growth and quality.
Windermere Berry Farms: Bigger, better berry yields
Location: Wanganui
System: Drip irrigation with nanobubbles
Results:
23.13% increase in saleable strawberry yields
Enhanced plant vigour
Reduced pest susceptibility
What the results show: For high-value crops like berries, yield and quality are everything. Windermere Berry Farms reported not only a significant increase in saleable fruit, but also stronger, healthier plants and improved disease resistance. With minimal changes to their existing infrastructure, the ROI was clear within one season.
