  • Publication number: 20240407352
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for monitoring the treatment of an agricultural field (11) with a pesticide product by an agricultural machine (10), wherein the agricultural machine (10) comprises at least one sensor device (31) and at least one treatment component comprising at least one nozzle (21), the method comprising the steps: providing (40) location-specific sensor data of the agricultural field (10) from the at least one sensor device (31); analyzing (42) the location-specific sensor data with respect to at least one harmful organism as one treatment indicator; generating location-specific control data for the at least one treatment component based on the analyzed location¬ specific sensor data; providing (44) a pesticide savings parameter in real-time, wherein the pesticide savings parameter relates to an amount of pesticide product based on the location-specific sensor data in relation to an amount of pesticide product based on a reference treatment with a pesticide product.

  • Publication number: 20240346606
    Abstract: Computer-implemented method for evaluating application threshold values for an application of an agricultural product on an agricultural field, comprising the steps: providing field data comprising geographic data about an agricultural field; segmenting at least a part of the agricultural field in sections and assigning different application threshold values for the agricultural product to different sections; applying the agricultural product on the sections according to the assigned application threshold values for the agricultural product; obtaining evaluation data for the different sections representing the effectiveness of the treatment with the different application threshold values; evaluating the different application threshold values at least based on the evaluation data (e.g. efficacy and or yields).

  • Patent number: 6835293
    Abstract: The invention relates to an analysis system comprising a main body (1) with a surface, at least one analysis unit (6) consisting of at least two reservoirs (10) placed in flow connection by at least one passage (13, 14) being provided in the main body (1). Two electrical conductors (23, 24) are provided in the main body (1) or on the surface, a first respective end region thereof being connected respectively to one of the at least two reservoirs (10) and a respective second end region of the conductors (23, 24) being connected to or constituting a contact point (9) on the surface of the main body (1).
