The current agriculture demands more and more precise handling. For this reason, the choice of agricultural chemicals and application management, which will control pests and diseases in the crop field, is crucial. One of the key factors for chemicals efficiency is precise and even application. Overdosing of agricultural chemicals, for example, caused by overlap results in weeds resistance and loss of yield.
By means of the Nozzle-by-Nozzle Control System, this issue is no longer usual. It shuts off the spray nozzle automatically in areas where the chemical solution has already been applied, preventing overlap and reducing product waste. The reduction of the number of applied products provides a great cost-benefit.
Studies that compare the sprayed areas with conventional system machines/sections and machines equipped with the Stara Nozzle-by-Nozzle Control System show that, the average overlap when using the Nozzle-by-Nozzle is 0.32% while using the sections shutting down is 3.59%. This average comes from an evaluation of overlap of 34,686 hectares in Brazil, and it varies according to the region and terrain type. For instance, in the mid-west region, the average overlap is approximately 3%, while in the South region is around 6%.
Are you eager to learn what your crop saving will be? So, use the app Stara Spraying. It calculates the savings provided by the Nozzle-by-Nozzle Control System in a certain area, based on the crop overlap average.
