# [Wholesale Nursery Prepares for Extreme Weather with Custom Ag Package](https://www.allflo.com.au/resources/projects/wholesale-nursery-becomes-prepared-for-the-unexpected-with-a-custom-built-remko-ag-package)

##### With heavy rainfall forecast earlier this year, **Botanic Plant Supply**, a wholesale nursery supplying trees to landscapers, developers, and councils, needed to prepare for increased run-off across their site.

###### Their existing pump system was becoming unreliable, spare parts were difficult to source, and with a major weather event approaching, the risk of failure was too high to ignore.

 

##### The Challenge

The nursery required a **reliable diesel-powered pump solution** to collect run-off water from recycle dams where **no mains power was available**.

The system needed to be:

- Mobile between multiple dam locations
- Capable of **remote operation**
- Ready to deploy quickly ahead of forecast rainfall

##### The Solution

Following a recommendation from a Victorian irrigation provider, the business contacted **Allflo Pumps & Equipment**.

After assessing the site requirements, Allflo specified a **Remko RS-150 pump coupled to a Perkins 404D-22 diesel engine Ag Package**. The skid-mounted design allowed the unit to be easily placed on an existing trailer, providing the mobility the nursery required.

To enhance control and flexibility, the package was fitted with:

- **K27 telemetry**, enabling remote start/stop from up to five mobile phones
- **Float-controlled auto start/stop**, allowing unattended operation during rising water levels

With a suitable unit already in stock, only telemetry, pipework and final connections were required — allowing the nursery to be operational well ahead of the weather event.

 

##### The Outcome

Upon collection, an Allflo technician provided a full handover and operational walkthrough, ensuring the customer was confident using the system immediately.

The nursery is now equipped with a **robust, mobile and remotely operated pumping solution**, ready to respond quickly to heavy rainfall and unexpected site conditions.

With **Australian-based support and Remko spare parts stocked locally in Shepparton**, the customer also gained long-term confidence that help and parts are readily available when needed.

This project was a strong result — driven by listening to the customer, acting quickly, and delivering a solution that worked.
