A new Spray Assist App is now available in Ireland, which is designed to
help sprayer operators select the most appropriate application techniques in real time.
The app by Syngenta, links to live local weather data, to analyse the factors that influence accurate application and potential risk of spray drift, including wind, rain or frost.
It also suggests techniques to enable sprayer operators to mitigate risks or alter practices.
Significantly, the app can be used with all manufacturers’ agrochemicals by downloading from the app store.
Spray Assist App technology supports decision-making
The development of the app is another example of the potential for digital technology to provide up-to-date decision support solutions.
