  4. Set-Up • Pump and Control Module attached to air cart or Planter • Pumps liquid from tank to nozzle • Computer will control rate of spray based on GPS position

  5. Additional Equipment • Additional Pumps • Stacker • Openers • Section Control • Spiker • Additional tanks

  6. Disadvantages • High set-up cost • System plus multiple attachments, equipment, soil test • Have to change application timing

  7. Summary • Effective and efficient system • Has made producers more profitable • Step toward the future
