The Vulcan system harnesses the power of advanced cameras, precision lighting, and computational capabilities to manage weed populations through mechanical intervention. This new product line is available in two distinct models: a single-bed and three-bed implement, offering versatility in addressing diverse crop needs. The Vulcan machines can efficiently manage one to eight rows of crops in a single bed, making them suitable for Brussels sprouts, artichokes, brassicas, and lettuce. Notably, the integration of cutting-edge camera and lighting technologies has enabled FarmWise to significantly reduce the weight of these units. Information on FarmWise's Vulcan machine is available online on the brand's website.
