Farm Dog and John Deere have launched a joint development project to develop variable rate spray technology for pest and disease management. The project is supported in part by a $900,000 grant from the Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation (BIRD Foundation) and delivers the next stage in the companies' collaboration to reduce pesticide use, increase yields, and promote environmental sustainability. Building on prior integration of the Farm Dog platform with John Deere Operations Center, this next phase extends data sharing and leverages John Deere's ExactApply spray equipment capabilities. In this next phase, both companies will work jointly to design and test variable rate spraying solutions. Development will occur simultaneously in Israel and Iowa over the next 18 months.
