Why Precision Spray Rig Servicing Matters — And How Farmacist Can Help

19 June 2025

With multiple herbicides now under critical review by the APVMA, precision spray application has never been more important. In today’s regulated spray environment, it’s no longer enough to simply run your sprayer — you need to know that every droplet is being applied accurately, legally, and effectively.

At Farmacist, we work directly with growers to ensure spray rigs are properly calibrated, fully maintained, and equipped with modern GPS control systems that minimise overlap and reduce drift risk.

Key areas where spray precision matters:

  • Ensuring correct application rates

  • Avoiding overlap and off-target spray

  • Reducing chemical wastage

  • Protecting against legal or regulatory breaches

  • Supporting product stewardship and maintaining registrations

To help growers better understand the services available, we’ve created a full Spray Rig Servicing & GPS Upgrades Guide, which outlines:

  • Base-level calibration services

  • Full spray rig rebuild and upgrade options

  • Ag Leader GPS hardware installation

  • Swath control and liquid rate control technology

  • Pickup and drop-off service options

  • Why proactive compliance matters more than ever

As regulations continue to tighten, proactive servicing and system upgrades are one of the most effective ways to protect your investment, your licence, and your reputation.
