Furrow irrigation offers several advantages, including simplicity, low cost, and suitability for a wide range of crops and soil types. Furrow irrigation remains a common and practical method of irrigating crops in many agricultural regions worldwide, providing essential water resources for sustainable food production.

Drip irrigation involves the slow and controlled application of water directly to the root zone of plants through a network of tubes, pipes, valves, sprinklers, sprays and emitters. Drip irrigation minimizes water loss by delivering water directly to the root zone, reducing evaporation and runoff. It allows for precise control over the amount and frequency of water applied, which can be tailored to the specific needs of different crops. Because water is targeted at the plant roots, there is less moisture available for weed growth between rows. Bolinger and Queen offers the pump stations, filter stations, nutrient injection kits, and all other components necessary for you to get the most out of drip irrigation.

Solid set irrigation aims to achieve uniform water distribution across the entire field. Proper spacing and placement of sprinklers, along with appropriate nozzle selection and pressure regulation, help ensure consistent coverage and minimize water waste. Throughout the last 60 years we have developed relationships with the best manufacturers and design professionals available. We can bring value to your pursuit of achieving uniformity through solid set irrigation.

Periodic move sprinkler systems are commonly used in agricultural applications to irrigate crops and pastures. They are particularly well-suited for irrigating large, open areas where other irrigation methods may be impractical or inefficient. Overall, periodic move sprinkler systems offer an effective and flexible solution for irrigating large areas of land while promoting water conservation, soil health, and sustainable agricultural practices. Bolinger and Queen works offers Wade Rain and Travis Pattern systems for periodic-move irrigation. Given our focus on agricultural irrigation we can provide a turn-key package to include all buried infrastructure, pump stations, and filters to make your system work for your given application.

When transitioning from furrow irrigation to mechanized irrigation, pumping costs become an important component and important investment. Bolinger and Queen offers custom pump stations and controls tailored to your specific project.

When combined with a Phase Technologies variable frequency drive (VFD), the pump station will receive energy-efficient motor control, precise speed regulation, and enhanced system performance. A VFD’s versatility and benefits make them indispensable tools for improving productivity, reliability, and sustainability in irrigation operations.

Filtration plays a significant role in water management and irrigation practices, particularly in regions like Western Colorado where water resources are precious and often subject to various quality and supply challenges. Bolinger and Queen helps you irrigate with the dirtiest water; water quality is no longer a reason to avoid drip/micro or other forms of mechanized irrigation.

Nutrient injection for irrigation, also known as fertigation, involves the simultaneous application of water and nutrients directly to plants' root zones through irrigation systems. With fertigation you can ensure that plants receive the right amount of nutrients when they need them most, minimize losses due to leaching, runoff, or volatilization, and improve plant uptake and utilization, maximizing crop yield and quality. Controlled nutrient application can support specific stages of crop growth, such as flowering, fruiting, and grain development, leading to increased yields and improved crop characteristics. Fertigation reduces the need for separate fertilizer applications, minimizing labor, equipment, and fuel costs associated with conventional fertilization methods. Enhanced nutrient efficiency and crop performance can translate into higher returns on investment for growers, as increased yields and quality may offset the initial investment in fertigation equipment and technology. Nutrient injection systems can be integrated with irrigation controllers and sensors, enabling precise timing and dosage adjustments to optimize nutrient delivery and minimize waste.
