Think about your garden at home. How many weeds are nearly invisible at first glance? Give it a week, and suddenly they’re everywhere, taking over your vegetables. Now imagine a field hundreds of times bigger, identifying weeds the size of a pencil eraser while driving a large sprayer at 16 mph. That’s exactly what See & Spray™ Gen 2 technology does. It scans more than 2,500 square feet every second, identifying and spraying only the weeds, not the entire field. Last year alone, farmers used See & Spray™ across more than 5 million acres and cut non‑residual herbicide use by nearly 50%. And here’s the part that often surprises people. This technology isn’t just for brand‑new machines. Equipment going back to 2018 can be upgraded, so farmers can add precision to the machines they already have.
