The app was developed by the team of the Agricultural Machinery and Precision Agriculture department of the Fundação ABC. The function of the tool is to help the farmer and the consultant to find the most suitable nozzle for the application you wish to make in the field. Instead of having to look for the right nozzle in the various catalogs available, ABCpontas can list the most suitable models for the service quickly. It is only necessary to provide the application rate, spacing between the nozzles on the sprayer boom and the desired speed. The list is already ordered, that means the top one is the most appropriate. It has three filters that can be used to refine the search, it is possible to choose the nozzle manufacturer, droplet size and nozzle type. If the application does not find an optimal nozzle, it already offers the user suggestions for changes, such as application rate or speed, for example, to find an option. By choosing a nozzle and clicking on it, the application brings information like manufacturer, model and color. Below is a graph showing the speed range required to maintain drop size and working pressure. In addition, it has the Speedometer, which allows the user to monitor the droplet size while spraying. Just enter the application rate (L/ha), the nozzle spacing and the chosen nozzle. Then just follow the screen if the drop sizes are ideal, as recommended by the consultant. But for this function you need a device with GPS antenna. And you know what else? You do not need to be connected. Works offline! And it's a multi-brand app, that is, it has more than a thousand options registered. The new models that are being released in the market will be added through the updates. The Fundação ABC is a private agricultural research institution, with more than 30 years of existence and recognition throughout the world, for the research and development of new technologies. If you find any errors or have any suggestion of other brands and models not registered, please contact us at ap@fundacaoabc.org.br

About

GPD

This app helps farmers assess planting uniformity by measuring seed spacing. It calculates the Coefficient of Variation (CV%) and analyzes distribution regularity, identifying acceptable spacing, doubles, and skips to improve crop yield.

Highlights
  • Measures seed spacing uniformity
  • Calculates Coefficient of Variation (CV%)
  • Analyzes distribution regularity (acceptable, doubles, skips)
  • Identifies causes of planting errors
  • Aids in improving plantability

Criado por: Júlio César Santos Pereira DEFINIÇÃO DO APLICATIVO: Este aplicativo foi desenvolvido para ajudar o produtor a avaliar a importância de mensurar cada linha do seu plantio e garantir uma melhor plantabilidade. A Distribuição Longitudinal, pode ser mensurada através de alguns parâmetros, sendo os principais o Coeficiente de Variação (CV%) e a regularidade de distribuição (aceitável, duplas e falhas) COEFICIENTE DE VARIAÇÃO: O coeficiente de variação é definido pela medida de dispersão dos espaçamentos entre sementes e/ou plantas em relação a média. Quanto maior for o valor de CV% maior é a variação em relação a média, ou seja, aumenta a irregularidade de distância entre as plantas. REGULARIDADE DE DISTRIBUIÇÃO: Outro parâmetro de qualidade da Plantabilidade é a regularidade de distribuição de plantas pode ser classificada em espaçamentos aceitáveis, duplas e falhas. Aceitável: Quando a distância entre as plantas for maior que 0,5 e menor que 1,5 vezes a distância ideal Dupla: Quando a distância entre as plantas for menor que 0,5 vezes a distância ideal Falha: Quando a distância entre as plantas for maior que 1,5 vezes a distância ideal CAUSAS DE ERRO: As causas de falta de uniformidade no plantio vão desde a velocidade do plantio, problemas com o disco dosador de sementes, regulagem geral da semeadora, profundidade uniforme de deposição de sementes, fechamento do sulco do plantio, manutenção da semeadora, etc. Instagram: @grupodeplantiodireto
