The importance of a fertilizer spreader evaluation in the precision agriculture production system

Abstract

In this article a fertilizer spreader was evaluated considering its use in precision agriculture production. Several regulations and several static and dynamic trials were performed. It was demonstrated that the fertilizer spreader had good distribution homogeneity, considering different working velocities and different positions in the parcel.

With these results one could confirm that the spreader can be used to spread any fertilizer differentially in space.
