Headquartered in Limeira, São Paulo, Setorial manufactures hose reel irrigation systems as well as sprinklers, motor pumps and equipment for water conveyance and effluent application. Its customers range from large sugar and ethanol mills to small growers, fruit and vegetable producers, cooperatives and family farms.“Hose reels are a natural complement to our Zimmatic™ center pivots,” said Randy Wood, President and CEO of Lindsay Corporation. “Setorial brings 30 years of experience, a trusted brand and deep knowledge of Brazilian growers. Together, we will be able to serve our customers more completely in this key market, from large sugar and ethanol mills to small family farms and bring efficient irrigation to more farmland across the country.”Complementing center pivot irrigationHose reel irrigation provides a complementary solution to traditional center pivot irrigation. While pivots typically irrigate larger, fixed areas, hose reels are mobile and can be used across irregular, temporary or smaller fields. The two technologies can also operate side by side to address different irrigation needs on the same farming operation.Setorial’s hose reel line ranges from models designed for areas up to approximately 25 acres to equipment capable of irrigating nearly 200 acres per unit. The equipment is used across a range of crops and production systems, including sugarcane, where hose reels can support supplemental irrigation and the application of vinasse, a nutrient-rich by-product of ethanol production. Hose reel systems can help growers conserve resources through targeted water application and the reuse of nutrient-rich vinasse.Lindsay already offers hose reel equipment manufactured in France through the Perrot™ line, designed for European agriculture. Setorial adds products developed and manufactured in Brazil specifically for local crops, soil and terrain conditions and the needs of Brazilian growers.Building on local irrigation expertiseUpon closing, Setorial will continue operating under its existing brand, with its current team and manufacturing facility in Limeira. Founder and CEO Diomedes Pellegrini Tamani will continue leading the business. Existing customers and sales representatives will continue receiving Setorial products, parts, technical support and warranty coverage.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.“We built Setorial with a focus on growers and on the reliability of our equipment in the field,” said Pellegrini Tamani. “Joining Lindsay gives us the resources to grow while keeping our brand, our team and our plant in Limeira.
