Plant Protection, Fertilizing and Irrigation More flexible and precise – trends of plant protection techniques

Abstract:

In crop protection technology, there were again many technical innovations this year that could find their way into practice in the future. In the shadow of the "hoeing" trend, row spraying is also a topical issue again and is represented with new options. The number of systems for pulse width modulation on the German market continues to increase and serves as the basis for establishing functionalities such as adjusting the application rate in curves or for side-specific application in practice. Furthermore, there are new and promising systems for digital assistance of users, in which the entire process is in focus. Completely new approaches such as tramline deactivation also show that the opportunities for saving pesticides are not yet exhausted.
