The Hortimec spraying booms are equipped with the latest Dutch software and are fully adapted to the most recent preferences of the best growers.
The settings & parameters on the control box are linked to an app that can be operated via IOS /Android mobile phone, computer or laptop.
The Hortimec sprayings booms are mulitfunctional:
Watering
the flat fan nozzles, positioned in 'roof tile format', ensure a 100% uniform water distribution, resulting in uniform growth
additional side nozzles prevent dry edges in Summer and the side nozzles can spray separately in winter to water only the dry edges
the water consumption drops by 30 - 40%, because shorter and more frequent watering is done with less overdosis/ leaking into the ground
with spraying booms you can accelerate the dry - wet cycle, which stimulates the absorption of nutrients
Phyto-sanitary crop treatment
crop treatments are to be carried out frequently, because chemical agents are no longer available; the booms allow you to spray automatically and as often as necessary
By means of a Dosatron the crop can be treated quickly and easily via a separate pipe on the spray boom with separate fine nozzles
Growth regulation
the spray pipe can be tilted, so that growth regulators can also be applied by effectively spraying under the leaves
Regulate humidity
the humidity is controlled by means of an external computer start and extra fine nozzles on a separate bar
UVC lighting and chemical-free crop treatment
the spray boom can be equipped with UVC lamps, which combat the fungi on a daily basis and make the crop more resilient
Crop monitoring or crop surveillance by means of cameras
