Is See & Spray Practical in a No-Till System?

Tyler Troiola used John Deere See & Spray Premium for the first time. The retrofit kit uses 36 cameras and machine learning to selectively target spray weeds. Troiola used it on corn at 10 inches, 14 inches and 18 inches. When corn was 10 inches tall, he says See & Spray only sprayed about 18% of the field, which adds up to over 80% in herbicide savings.

He also talks about how to pinpoint yield-limiting factors in the field and create solutions for those areas while the crop is still able to respond.
