Herbicide Spot Spraying - green on green

Anthemis grows in patches. Spray patches.

In this field, the Anthemis sat in patches, and blanket spraying would have put herbicide on the 70.04% of the crop that never needed it.

A 19-minute drone flight mapped this 18.2-hectare field. CultiWise picked out each Anthemis plant inside the rape and turned the detections into a spot-spray prescription map: 5.47 hectares to treat, the rest untouched. Because the map calculates the exact mixture in advance, the operator mixed only what those hectares needed, no overspray, nothing left over.

The patches got the full Galera dose and the control that comes with it. The rest of the crop saw no chemical at all, and 70.04% of the herbicide was never needed, worth €43 per hectare.
