Toro and TerraRad Partner to Lead Groundbreaking Soil Moisture Software for Effortless Precision Irrigation
Introducing data-driven moisture control software for greater savings and reduced labor
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (February 5, 2025) — Toro is thrilled to announce an exclusive partnership with TerraRad that will lead to the introduction of a first-of-its-kind software tool for precision irrigation control. The new Spatial Adjust software from Toro will integrate exclusively with the Toro Lynx® Central Control platform. This data-driven irrigation control software is the only system that allows you to automatically modify your irrigation schedule based on recommended adjustments.
Toro’s exclusive partnership with TerraRad is paving the way for innovative technology solutions. This collaboration presents a unique opportunity for two of the leading golf course solution providers to deliver cutting-edge advancements that will ultimately change the landscape for golf course superintendents. The partnership between Toro and TerraRad is driving new possibilities in golf course irrigation.
The new software relies on TerraRad’s turfRad smart sensors installed on Toro equipment to map soil moisture levels while you mow. The software will send the data to Lynx Central Control in real-time with color-coded maps that indicate moisture variations. To ensure proper irrigation customized to course needs, the software will provide individual sprinkler adjustment recommendations that can be made with the click of a button.
Designed with golf course superintendents in mind, it’s irrigation control with confidence. No soil probing. No guesswork. Only precision irrigation. You’ll save operational costs, reduce water consumption and improve course maintenance for optimal turf conditions.
Toro’s Spatial Adjust software is expected to launch at the end of the year and represents a breakthrough in irrigation technology, delivering a one-of-a-kind system that completely eliminates the need for manual labor in moisture monitoring and sprinkler adjustments. By automating the process, this exclusive software will not only save time but also significantly reduce costs, while ensuring control remains in the superintendent’s hands. The golf course management software can be set and customized for specific moisture levels, and superintendents have the control to override the system if needed.
Unlike anything else on the market, the software combines cutting-edge data collection with seamless integration into the Lynx Central Control platform. It will provide golf course superintendents with the ultimate tool for precision irrigation — backed by the ultimate golf course duo, Toro and TerraRad.
“We’re incredibly proud to debut this exclusive partnership and the groundbreaking work we are doing at the 2025 GCSAA Conference and Trade Show,” says John Dalman, senior product marketing manager at Toro. “With a fully integrated irrigation system that offers real-time moisture mapping, accurate data and easy-to-use controls, golf course superintendents can keep their turf in top shape, all while meeting sustainability goals and cutting costs.”
