Working Principle

As a crop producer, you know that tackling weeds is a constant struggle. It requires extra effort, costs and can even impair the growth of crops. But what if we told you that there is a smarter and more cost-effective solution?

There’s no such thing as out of the blue! Why WEED-IT relies on car and truck technology. WEED-IT Quadro, the newest precision spraying technology from Dutch selective weed spraying specialist Rometron, uses blue LED-lighting to identify weeds and plants. But it isn’t the colour that counts, says the company’s founder and owner, it’s the technology.

Over the past 10 years, interest in Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technology for agricultural sprayers has increased significantly. Its benefits - regulation of the application rate independently of pressure and the ability to apply crop protection products evenly in corners - have greatly contributed to this.

Fast, foolproof, robust and with the highest success rate: those are the reasons why WEED-IT users count on the power of fluorescence. And therefore, Rometron relies on fluorescence technology as the best suitable technology for weed management.
