Reinke Manufacturing, a manufacturer of irrigation systems, specializes in center pivot and lateral move designs, has announced the general availability of ReinCloud 3, its most advanced remote irrigation management solution to date. Designed to address the pressing challenges of modern agricultural operations, ReinCloud 3 aims to enhance water efficiency, optimize resource management, and improve operational outcomes for growers worldwide.
Since its initial launch in 2016, ReinCloud aims to provide farmers a centralized platform to manage irrigation systems and farm data. The latest iteration builds upon this foundation with improved features tailored to meet the evolving needs of the industry.
Enhanced Data Collection and Connectivity
ReinCloud 3 introduces a suite of telemetry enhancements that optimize data accuracy and ensure reliable connectivity. These improvements allow growers to automate the collection of real-time field conditions, monitor advanced irrigation system metrics, and assess crop health more efficiently. The system’s uninterrupted sensor coverage facilitates seamless data transmission, providing critical insights to support informed decision-making.
Improved User Interface and System Control
With a redesigned user interface, ReinCloud 3 simplifies irrigation management by presenting the most essential insights in an intuitive format. Growers can oversee all irrigation systems through a single, no-fuss application that streamlines water distribution across various field conditions. A newly introduced smart irrigation controller dashboard offers a quick overview of system status and relevant variables, with optional notifications for immediate alerts.
Advanced Mapping and Programming Capabilities
ReinCloud 3 enhances productivity efforts with advanced view layers that include weather patterns, soil conditions, yield mapping, and application data for Chemigation, Fertigation, and seeding. The updated platform also supports forward and reverse field-sector programming, end gun control, and auxiliary programming, ensuring greater precision in irrigation processes. Customizable control options further allow growers to configure machine groupings and command settings, enabling quick and tailored irrigation management.
Integrated Dealer Portal for Enhanced Support
To improve customer service and technical support, Reinke has integrated a sophisticated dealer portal within ReinCloud 3. This portal enables dealers to provide enhanced assistance to growers, ensuring that users receive the guidance and resources they need to maximize the platform’s capabilities.

Seamless Integration with Reinke’s RC3 Hardware
ReinCloud 3 is fully compatible with Reinke’s latest remote management hardware, RC3. This integration allows growers to remotely access, monitor, and control their irrigation equipment across multiple locations from any smart device. The RC3 hardware has undergone significant updates, including a more compact design, improved connectivity for electric pivots with any panel type, and a low-maintenance, sealed-enclosure build. Additionally, it comes with a comprehensive three-year warranty, reinforcing Reinke’s commitment to durability and reliability.
Commitment to Agricultural Innovation
As agricultural practices continue to evolve, Reinke remains focused on providing farmers with the tools necessary to adapt to changing conditions.
“Farmers cannot be on every field at every location at the same time, but water needs can change in an instant. Being able to access critical information, make time-sensitive irrigation decisions, and control equipment remotely makes real-time farming a reality. We are committed to delivering technology solutions that evolve with growers’ needs and ensure season-after-season efficiency.”
The ReinCloud app is now available for download in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, allowing growers to access these advanced water management tools from their preferred devices. Reinke is also progressing with shipments of its recently announced E3 precision center pivot systems, which feature uniform coupler spacing. New orders for E3 or other Reinke pivot irrigation systems will be equipped with ReinCloud 3 and RC3 technology, ensuring that all new systems are telemetry-enabled and prepared for seamless remote management.
