Product catalog summary
Introduction
This document discusses precision agriculture technologies focusing on vehicle-mounted sprayers for various crops such as olives, nuts, vineyards, and tree crops. It compares Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) technology with traditional hydraulic pressure nozzles, highlighting operational efficiencies and environmental benefits.

Comparison of Spraying Technologies
  • CDA Technology: Utilizes centrifugal disc sprayers for uniform droplet size and coverage, leading to fewer reloads, reduced costs, and less environmental impact.
  • Hydraulic Nozzles: Breaks spray liquid under pressure, resulting in a wide spectrum of droplet sizes and higher liquid usage.

Operational Efficiencies
  • Lower spraying volume reduces costs.
  • Homogeneous droplet size improves results.
  • Reduced equipment weight minimizes soil compaction.
  • Shorter refill times enhance spraying speed.

Environmental and Safety Benefits
  • 95% reduction in drift.
  • Reduced water and product consumption.
  • Less soil contamination and operator exposure.

Sprayer Structures and Specifications
  • Various structures available for different row widths and crop types.
  • Protective shields reduce drift and allow spraying in unfavorable conditions.
  • Flow rates and autonomy vary by shield size and tank capacity.

Spray-Flex and Spray-Dome Systems
  • Designed for vineyard, shrub, and sapling treatments with flexible structures.
  • Spray-dome provides thorough weed control and a physical barrier to prevent drift.

Precision Agriculture Software - LANDROOTER
  • Connected to MICRON equipment for real-time monitoring and control.
  • Features include plot mapping, product definition, speed management, and application analysis.
  • Ensures accurate application and optimizes fieldwork through real-time data communication.

Field Crop Solutions
  • Varidome: Inter-row solution that protects crops from drift and improves weed control.
  • Micromax: Rotary atomiser for herbicide, insecticide, and fungicide applications, reducing drift and costs.
  • WeedWiper: Direct herbicide application to target weeds, minimizing drift and product waste.

CONTROLLED DROPLET APPLICATION (CDA) TECHNOLOGY The effectiveness of an application depends on the uniformity of droplet size and coverage (No./cm2) to achieve the target. Micron’s centrifugal disc sprayers with CDA technology allow excellent results in these parameters to offer the grower operational efficiencies, i.e. fewer reloads of spray liquid; reduced costs, labour, fuel and with less environmental impact. CDA DROPLET VS HYDRAULIC PRESSURE NOZZLE COMPARISON CDA (20L/ha) A conventional nozzle breaks up the spray liquid by pushing it under pressure through an orifice. This method of application...

Versatile sprayers for olive trees, vineyards, nuts, general bush and woody crops. Micron sprayers are ideal for treating weeds in situations where a complete chemical barrier is required. The shields completely protect the crop from drift, allowing work to be carried out in unfavourable wind conditions and/or young crops. *Hydraulic nozzle kit available as option. Structure with electric piston, for 3,6-6m row widths Structure with manual extension, for 2,3-5m row widths
