Sustainable Agriculture is the key to global food production, a key part of this is crop protection at plant level. Agrifac continues to invest heavily in technology targeting application at plant level and already has an impressive product portfolio that includes DynamicDosePlus – (targeted high accuracy application (25x25cm) from prescription maps) and the industry leading AiCPlus – (machine mounted artificial intelligence driven optical spraying with Green on Brown and Green on Green capability). To further strengthen its position as the leader in precision application Agrifac is expanding its offering with the addition of WEED-IT on the Condor and Condor Endurance field sprayers.
“WEED-IT is a worldwide commonly used spot spray system to control weeds in a very efficient way. The option to combine WEED-IT with our Agrifac field sprayers makes the entire crop protection on your farm even more efficient,” says Rens Albers, Product Manager at Agrifac
WEED-IT provides effective, reliable weed control by detecting living green organic material using fluorescence technology. This works by measuring the degree of reflection of plants in certain light wavelengths. This technique makes it possible to work both day and night with a guaranteed hit ratio. This highly effective method of spot spraying (usually applied outside the growing season) has been widely proven since 1999 in countries such as Australia, the United States and Canada.
“The addition of WEED-IT to the Agrifac portfolio is the first OEM offering on Self Propelled Sprayers within Australia” says Richard Sheppy, Managing Director of Agrifac Australia “We see this as another tool available to our customers as they strive to reduce chemical usage and drive sustainability in their businesses.”
The first Agrifac sprayers equipped with this technology have now been delivered in Australia and Europe.
