Are you interested in band spraying and efficient, sustainable weed control?

Most crops are particularly sensitive to competition from weeds, especially in the early stages of development. The risk of later yield losses can be minimised if the crop can be kept weed-free until closing of the rows.

Targeted weed control by band spraying in the rows

In the field of hoeing technology, weed control within the crop rows has been the limiting factor. Band spraying is an efficient and sustainable solution. LEMKEN offers you the optimum solution from a single source: The EC-Weeder can be equipped with the SprayHub front tank and the SprayKit distribution unit. The combination of highly efficient hoeing machine and band sprayer unites two operations in one and enables uncompromising work in terms of weed control. The targeted application of band spraying directly on the plant row means a lower required application rate compared to surface application. At the same time, the weed control success in the intra-row area is significantly increased.

In order to optimally promote plant growth, the implement combination can be used to apply both liquid fertiliser and micronutrients in addition to plant protection products. This means that LEMKEN has the optimum solution for every crop when it comes to crop care.
