Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

A hydroponics droid or hydromech droid was a droid designed to locate and extract water from underground sources such as aquifers. Appendages included a retractable vertical sounding array and filtered moisture extractor. Sediment was dispersed from a top-mounted exhaust pipe. It also performed maintenance duties on GX-8 water vaporators.

One particular model used on Tatooine was the M-HYD binary hydromech droid.
