Growers can also change from a LEPA to LESA spray pattern by twisting and flipping the deflector assembly. It produces a wide gentle aerated pattern suitable for most crops and soils. It has the low-pressure water-saving efficiencies of a LEPA application but still provides total coverage. The LDN Wide Spray Bubbler is a low energy precision application (LEPA) nozzle for mechanical move irrigation systems.

It can also be combined with a variety locator map on-screen to prevent mixing two neighbouring varieties in the field.ĪutoPath is part of John Deere’s Gen4 Automation 4.0 display bundle and can be added to many existing John Deere machines. Operators need only drive to the line and hit AutoTrac resume. AutoPath integrates active implement guidance technology currently found on GPS steering system in potato planters. Regardless of equipment width, growers are able to easily identify the correct rows for each pass, whether that be the hiller, sprayer or harvester.

Captured images are run through AgroScout’s AI algorithm to identify the 12 main common pests and lesions among potato crops and across all growth cycles. The drones fly as low as two metres above canopy, maintaining a consistent level regardless of terrain contour changes. The AgroScout android-based sky application creates flight patterns to maximize field coverage. The drone scouting, along with satellite and mobile phone imagery allows growers to cover 100 to 1,000 times more field area than regular scouting alone. The AgroScout platform uses affordable, off-the-shelf drones to scout the fields and take high-resolution, geotagged images. AgroScout’s services include early detection of pests and disease, plant stand count, growth monitoring, and nutrition and irrigation evaluation. It integrates images gathered by drones, satellite and mobile phones, providing a range of services from planting to harvest to help growers reduce chemical inputs, improve productivity, and save money. AgroScout is a digital, drone-based scouting program which monitors potato fields from the leaf up. ![]()
