The CDFA's WETA Program assists farmers with one-on-one technical assistance to evaluate irrigation system efficiency, as well as to provide reports and recommendations to growers and train them in water efficiency and nutrient management practices and technology. Atlas Consulting Services is a WETA Technical Assistance Provider, meaning a grower will never receive fees from us.

Services we Provide:
Atlas Consulting Services will first determine, through a process of verifying distribution uniformity, conducting a pump efficiency test, and testing your soil and water, what an awardee would need to maximize their efficiency. We can then develop a new Irrigation Water Management (IWM) plan, which can include equipment recommendations and other general irrigation advice.
