16. Variable Rating Herbicides with Kyle Okke Pt. 2
from Ag Geek Speak · host A Podcast for Precision Agriculture Geeks
We sit down (again) with Kyle Okke of Agile Agronomy and explore how to make variable-rate residual herbicides actually work, from nozzle physics to dual-tank setups, and why agronomy must lead every tech decision. We also talk PWM (pulse width modulation), drift control, and mapping weed hot spots for smarter applications.Additionally...• Limits of conventional pressure-based rate changes• Why droplet size, pattern, and drift control matter• PWM and duty cycle basics• Turn compensation for consistent coverage• Mixing residuals with post products without losing efficacy• DIect injection timing challenges at boom length• Dual-tank, dual-boom systems for split strategies• Cost and scale drivers for adoption of certain spray systems• Green-on-brown paired with variable-rate residuals• Drone mapping kochia and wild oat patches for targeted residuals• Reducing passes, resistance pressure, and carryover riskStick around for the final part of our discussion, part 3!https://gktechinc.com/
