Aquarius Farm Controls was founded by Applied Digital, Inc. in 2017 to help farmers with their pump control operation. We determined that there was an opportunity to serve the agriculture industry with equipment that is reliable and improves efficiencies on the farm.
ADI’s president, Monte Gilliland, grew up on his family’s farm in western Kansas, where they owned 3500 acres, of which 1500 acres was irrigated to raise Sorghum, Sunflowers, and Soybeans. It was only a matter of time before the company focused on farm automation.
Aquarius Farm Controls carries with it a rich history of rock-solid engineering and manufacturing. Yet ADI remains rooted in their commitment to their customers. When you call us, you will speak to the very people who designed and built the system.
Applied Digital, Inc. brings over 30 years of automation control experience to the field. ADI houses their own mechanical and electrical engineering team in an 18,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Branson, Missouri. They specialize in custom automation controls. Long before anyone ever heard of Alexa®, ADI was controlling lights, thermostats, even sprinkler systems. The bulk of their operation concerns custom industrial automation controls in the automotive, aerospace, and commercial power industries, collecting an impressive client list, including GM, Ford, Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, NASA, and Iowa Light and Power, to name a few.
