Smart Spray Tech and Automation at Work in the Orchard

The world of farm equipment continues to plow forward, reports Growing Produce. Speed and efficiency of these machines are growing to next levels via new, smarter technology. This farm industry trend is on full display in a new video showing the Smart Apply Precision Spray + Data System integrated with a Mini GUSS Autonomous Sprayer.

The video was part of a recent field trial of the Smart Apply-Mini GUSS combination in a Washington State cherry orchard.

Part of the video description reads as follows: “Now, in addition to reducing chemical use and costs, digitally documenting every spray event, Smart Apply Systems users can also get the benefit of a self-driving sprayer.

“While the Smart Apply System automates much of the spraying process on its own through our software and reduces labor costs, GUSS takes it to the next level. Alone or together, Smart Apply and GUSS help solve the pressing labor issues facing specialty crop growers.”
