This my last feature on the John Deere tour. The sprayer below has a 120 foot span. It is equipped with nozzle bodies like the one below. The body supports 5 different nozzle types. The can be changed by switch from the cab. I saw this demonstrated at Saale Farm and Grain Plot tour. On a long boom, this must be a huge time saving. With all the nozzle variation needed for various crop protectant formulations, this is an important feature. I am not sure how much automatic shutoff control there is on the sprayers I saw. John Deere was touting their
Exact Apply system which controls each nozzle individually. I have no idea if they are the only ones with this setup.
