Thanks to United Prairie, the team received a detailed lesson on advanced sprayer technology. They received a tour of the facilities, and were able to get up close and personal with a sprayer equipped with "See and Spray" technology. This sprayer is equipped with multiple cameras, and has been programed to see, identify, and spray weeds almost instantly, reducing chemical usage. Comments | Permalink FFA makes a stop in Rantoul
