Patch spraying of weeds in spring cereals: Simulated influences of threshold level and spraying resolution on spraying errors and potential herbicide reduction

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica, Section B - Plant Soil Science, 2007
Abstract A major obstacle to patch spraying of broad-leaved weeds in cereals is a cost-effective method to assess within-field heterogeneity of the weed population. One method could be a camera mounted in front of the spraying vehicle, online image analysis, and field sprayer shifting between ‘on’ and ‘off’ as the predefined weed damage threshold level
