- [Narrator] Grain producers, managing weed pressure
on fallow ground need to complete weed kill,
but managing herbicide resistant weeds
comes at a cost as more expensive tank mixes
are the solution.
To address this head-on we're
introducing See & Spray Select on our new 400
and 600 series sprayers.
(upbeat music)
See & Spray Select enabled spot spraying of weeds
on fallow ground and is our first offering using
this new technology, making it the only factory
installed spot spring solution for farmers.
(upbeat music)
Built on the exact apply foundation.
See & Spray Select users, advanced camera
and nozzle control technology to differentiate color
on fallow ground detecting weeds and spot spray
spray length or buffer is the length of the spot spray zone.
These lengths can be small, medium, or large
and can vary based on ground speed, spray pressure
and boom height.
This system detects weeds and automatically
turns individual nozzles on and off
for the desired spray lane to hit just the weed
- CNN's phrase builds on a foundation
of our self-propelled sprayer
with exact apply to reduce chemical inputs
by only turning on nozzles when a weed is detected
and it does that seamlessly.
And 100% integrated with the John Deere sprayer today.
- [Narrator] See & Spray Select hits 98% of weeds,
which is similar to the hit rate of broadcast spray.
But since See & Spray only hits the weed
and not the entire field, it uses an average
of 77% less herbicide than broadcast spray.
That's right in tests on 75,000 acres of fallow ground.
In average growing conditions with the typical weed pressure
of 3000 weeds per acre and using an average spray length
of 2.75 feet tank level sensor values reported
and average herbicide savings of 77% when compared
with a broadcast spray, these savings equate
to reduced input costs, which can justify more expensive
and complex tank mixes to manage herbicide resistant leads.
Research has shown that weed sprayed with more
than two modes of action are 83 times less
likely to develop herbicide resistance.
So you'll target herbicide resistant weeds more
cost-effectively with one tank mix containing more modes
of action, and you'll only apply it to just the
wheat significantly reducing your overall chemical usage.
- I am so excited to bring this new sprayer
SUSE market because we're focused
on three things that customer really value,
which is quality of application, ease
of use and machine the fallibility or uptime.
They are going to also be able to reduce their
input costs when it comes to herbicide application.
- [Narrator] You'll also cover more acres per day
because you won't stop as often to refill.
For example, say you spray 160 acre field with
an application rate of 15 gallons per acre
at an average ground speed of 12 miles per hour.
If you tender 20 minutes for each bill, you'll save about
two tender fills for that field.
When compared with a broadcast spray, which means you
can spray the same field about 40 minutes faster, and
in applications where you don't use See & Spray Select
you can simply switch to broadcast spraying
without even leaving the cab
- To go from being a highly productive broadcast machine.
To getting into a CN spray mode is literally a few seconds
on the display to interact
and the machine is doing that job function.
So the integration is really what keeps it simple
for the grower to engage with the technology
and get the value without having to
either have an aftermarket system installed
or go through other steps to get to that value.
- [Narrator] The ExactApply nozzle control system
enables you to broadcast with more accuracy
than traditional broadcast spraying, reducing spray overlap
which can save you two to 5% chemical costs.
Best of all, you can track and access your application data
through the generation for display.
And since the sprayer is a connected machine
it streams this data view your JD link connection
to the John Deere operation center
in which you can monitor performance
and make decisions any time anywhere.
Of 400 or 600 series sprayer with See & Spray Select
gives you two effective time-saving sprayers in one machine.
See & Spray Select lets you zero
in on weeds with an effective tank mix
or you can broadcast spray for overall application.
As herbicide resistant, weed pressure increases.
You can reduce input costs, you can spray and save
with See & Spray Select the only factory
installed solution that gives you both targeted
and broadcast spray capabilities in one sprayer.
Completely integrated with John Deere precision
and technology and supported by a single dealer.
- This isn't a system that is very well integrated
easy to use, and they're gonna help them to
save input costs with the herbicide application
better manage the herbicide resistant weeds they have
and also helped them to be even better steward of the land
