2024 John Deere Mobile Weather Base

2024 John Deere Mobile Weather

Confidently apply crop protectants according to label requirements by knowing the current weather conditions including wind speed, wind direction, and humidity.

Improve recordkeeping and compliance reporting by documenting weather conditions during application

Features may include:

• Wind speed (true)

• Wind direction

• Delta T

• TemperatureManage efficacy and potential drift of chemical applications
  • Utilize the customizable alerts and weather information to make educated decisions about when to spray. Monitoring temperature, wind speed, wind direction, Delta T, and relative humidity on the go allows operators to quickly and easily understand if the weather conditions are favorable or not for product application. Built-in alerts make it easy for operators to set operational parameters to know when unfavorable weather conditions are present. Having weather information in the cab allows operators to increase product efficacy and decrease the risk of chemical drift.
  • Delta T is a calculation that indicates the acceptable conditions to apply product; the value indicates if the product applied will evaporate prior to being absorbed by the plant. Delta T is a calculated by subtracting the wet bulb temperature from the dry bulb temperature. When applying, Delta T should be between 2°C (4°F) and 8°C (14°F), and not greater than 10°C (18°F). A higher Delta T value results in a faster evaporation rate and shorter droplet lifetime. Applicators can utilize the customizable alerts to notify the operator when Delta T is too high and product application is not favorable in order to ensure maximum product effectiveness.
