Spray, save, and protect yield with See & Spray™ Premium
See & Spray Premium: For in-season application on corn, cotton, or soybeans in 76.2-cm (30-in.) or greater rows, or fallow ground using machine learning to identify weed from crop. It can also apply traditional broadcast application.

Technology Evolution
John Deere has focused on taking farmers’ application from field level to plant level over the years. From field to broadcast, section control to ExactApply™ individual nozzle control, and now the next step – to artificial intelligence and machine learning. See & Spray Premium works in conjunction with ExactApply nozzle control. It uses a combination of cameras and processors to detect weeds before activating only the nozzles necessary to apply a burst of herbicide to the weed, achieving a hit rate comparable to traditional broadcast spray.

Data Insights
How do you know See & Spray is doing its job? With the monitoring capabilities of John Deere Operations Center™ application and the G5Plus CommandCenter™ Display, you can track job quality and savings during and after application. These technology tools also offer weed pressure mapping, providing insights to make even better field management decisions. Weed pressure mapping only occurs when See & Spray is active during an operation.

Sustainability
Using less herbicide means using less water and creating less opportunity for drift, and that’s good for the land, water, and air that sustain us.

Additionally, See & Spray provides even more benefits for growers looking to make the best possible decisions about weed control.

See & Spray Premium benefits
Reduce solution use – Reduce the applied volume of herbicide by up to 50% by avoiding inefficient traditional broadcast application in corn, cotton, and soybeans.

Gain cost efficiency – With up to 50% spray volume reduction, this means significantly lower herbicide costs, fewer tendering stops, and more acres covered in a day.

Sustainability and stewardship – See & Spray Technology allows customers to spray only the weeds, reducing the amount of chemical applied.

Improve weed control – You may save enough to justify applying a different chemistry while improving your ability to manage herbicide-resistant weeds. Research has shown that weeds sprayed with complex tank mixes and more than two modes of action are 83 times less likely to develop herbicide resistance.

**NOTE: In tests over 75,000 acres of fallow ground, typical weed pressure of 3,000 weeds per acre, and with spray length settings of small medium, customers experienced an average herbicide savings of 77 percent compared to a traditional broadcast sprayer.
