1. Application Rate Stability When Implementing Automatic Section Control Technology On Agricultural Sprayers

Automatic section control (on and off) technology of sprayer boom sections is an intelligent solution to maximize spray application efficiency during field operations. This technology can reduce over-application of products. Spray controllers available with this technology attempt to maintain the set target rate by adjusting system flow rate based on ground speed and application width.  Therefore, as sections are turned on or off, the flow regulating hardware must respond to maintain...
