The Row Crop Thinner is capable of thinning row crops such as lettuce using computer machine vision to identify plant locations and a herbicidal spray to eliminate the unwanted plants, replacing the traditional thinning method of hand labor.

• Thinning is accomplished at speeds of 3 MPH (5km/hr).
• Machines have been deployed coast to coast across North America in all soil types.
• More consistent results than traditional thinning methods.
• Requires spray tanks on the tractor. The remainder of the plumbing is all mounted on the machine.
• The entire spray system is comprised of off-the-shelf components allowing for quick and easy replacement of parts and minimal downtime.
• A touch screen is mounted in the cab and allows the operator to monitor the machine and make any necessary adjustments on the fly.
• It is available in any configuration to match your planter (number of rows/seed lines).
• Designed to be operated by a single tractor driver.
• Internet connectivity is available for remote troubleshooting.
• Capable of running day and night.
