Abstract

A system for spraying an agricultural field provides a weed distribution model including information corresponding to a weed distribution as a function of geographic location within the field. An initial portion of the field is sprayed with a first product from a first tank leaving a remaining portion of the field to be sprayed. A quantity of the first product from the first tank required to complete the spraying of the remaining portion of the field is estimated based at least in part on the weed distribution model, the estimated quantity being less than the first tank capacity. The estimated quantity of the first product is loaded into the first tank so that the remaining portion of the field may be sprayed with the first tank being empty, at least to a threshold level, at the end of the spraying of the remaining portion of the field.
