Apply fertiliser and plant protection site-specifically

Farm machinery applies fertiliser and plant protection only where it is needed

Needs setupAI Act: no extra obligationsLetting machines & robots work autonomouslyAgriculture

Fits: Production, engineering & maintenance

Spreaders and sprayers continuously adjust the rate to the soil and the crop, and camera systems spray only where weeds are growing. You save fertiliser and products, and soil and water are less polluted.

Is this for you?

  • Your fields are uneven: changing soils, hilltops, hollows.
  • You have GPS guidance and a spreader or sprayer with section control, or you are planning a new purchase.
  • You have soil samples, yield maps or satellite maps from several years.
First step today

Upload the soil samples or yield data for one field from recent years as a table and use the template below to check how much the field varies. Where values hardly vary, site-specific technology is of little benefit.

How to go about it

  1. Define fields, operation and data basis
  2. Set limits and safety
  3. Choose machine, sensor and mapping software
  4. Test on comparison strips under supervision
  5. Approve further fields and operations
  6. Check maps, sensors and effect every year
