ABOUT US
Built on Experience,

With over 36 years of hands-on experience across the irrigation industry — from service and installation through to system design, consulting, and independent auditing — Richard Kingsbury brings a depth of knowledge that few in the industry can match. His career has been built not in theory, but in the field — working directly with farmers, diagnosing system failures, improving performance, and designing solutions that deliver measurable results.
Operating across New Zealand and Australia, Richard has developed a clear understanding of the challenges farmers face — from water efficiency and power costs through to system reliability, maintenance, and long-term return on investment.

CENTRE PIVOT IRRIGATION
Why Debont?
The Debont Centre Pivot stands out for one simple reason — when correctly designed and specified, it performs at a level expected of the world’s leading centre pivot systems.
Debont systems are engineered using high-quality, globally sourced components, comparable to those used in established international brands such as Valley Centre Pivots. By removing unnecessary cost layers and focusing on practical, field-proven design, Debont delivers a significantly more cost-effective solution — without compromising performance, reliability, or longevity.
From an auditing and performance perspective, Debont pivots consistently achieve strong results in:
-
Application efficiency
-
Distribution uniformity
-
Energy efficiency
-
Ease of operation and maintenance
In many cases, Debont systems also offer the added advantage of compatibility with Valley Centre Pivots infrastructure, making upgrades, repairs, and expansions straight forward and cost-effective.
