Abstract
A method for applying a spray agent to an agricultural land using a spray nozzle unit of an agricultural spray device. The method includes detecting first and second field sections of the agricultural land using an optical detection unit to obtain first and second pieces of image information from the first and second field sections, wherein the pieces of image information have a common lateral overlapping area having a depth in the travel direction of the agricultural spray device; classifying plants in the obtained pieces of image information using a control unit; determining first and second plant identification numbers for first and second image evaluation areas in the obtained first and second pieces of image information using the classified plants; and applying the spray agent as a function of the determined plant identification numbers using the spray nozzle unit of the agricultural spray device.
