Reducing Pesticides in Apple Cultivation – Our Solution
Being one of the largest apple producers in Europe, Italy also ranks third in pesticide use – an alarming trend that poses significant environmental contamination and threatens the lives of various species.
Although elimination of pesticides is not feasible, SprayLogics suggests a more sustainable approach.
“Only 20% of what is sprayed ends up on the plants, while 80% is dispersed into the surrounding environment.”
To avoid this effect, our infrared sensors, integrated on agricultural machinery, are designed to target leaves directly and distribute the right dosage based on comprehensive data. Several advantages of such an approach include conserving the product and increasing investment margin for future treatments.
