Variable rate - VRA for plant protection works

Features

  • Variable application of crop protection products (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides) based on VRA maps generated from data (satellite imagery, yield map, real-time sensors) or decision algorithms.
  • Supports standard file formats for export to rate controllers and allows integration with Section Control to minimise overlaps.

Benefits

  • It reduces the total amount of product applied by adapting the dose to the specific needs of each area in the plot (zoning by level of pest pressure, vigour, etc.).
  • It can increase the efficiency of treatments (concentrating the solution where it is needed) and reduce the risk of resistance development through better managed applications.
  • Enables detailed agronomic documentation for compliance and performance analysis.

Benefits for the farm

  • Significant reductions in plant protection costs (studies show relevant reductions in doses and costs) and improved cost-effectiveness of treatments.
  • Treat more efficiently and with greater agronomic impact: protect critical areas and reduce unnecessary treatments.
  • It contributes to sustainable practices: fewer pesticides applied per ha, less drift and better environmental protection.
