About us
Based in Indianapolis, Smart Apply®, Inc., is a fast-growing agtech company and creator of the Smart-Apply® Intelligent Spray Control System™ that delivers a one-of-a-kind precision spraying and precision data solution to growers of high-value specialty crops. The Smart Apply System uses LiDAR to apply chemical to individual trees, vines, hops, and nursery plants based on size and foliage density. The precise application of chemicals replaces the costly clouds of chemicals uniformly delivered by traditional air blast sprayers. This approach reduces overall chemical use and costs by an average of 50% while supporting healthy crop yields. Additionally, Smart Apply's precision spraying reduces chemical run-off and air borne drift up to 92% and 87% respectively, for an environmentally friendly solution. The Smart Apply System also has a data component, automatically capturing data during each spray event that serves as a digital record of each spray event. It documents date and time of spraying, volume of chemicals applied, tree counts, tractors speeds, and more. Such data is critical in supporting farm operations and meeting reporting requirements for government bodies, export regulations, brands and various sustainability reporting. Growers also have the option to integrate their data with the John Deere Operations Center for additional analytics and benefits. The Smart Apply Intelligent Spray Control System is sold as a kit that growers can install on existing or new air blast, GUSS and over-the-row sprayers. The system is compatible with virtually any brand. Smart Apply was acquired by the John Deere in July 2023 and is now a John Deere company. The Smart Apply System is sold through a growing network of authorized dealers around the world. Find a dealer here> https://smartapply.com/dealers/

Here’s a great video from Campbell Tractor & Implement Inc taken at a field demo a week ago. Campbell is running a LectroBlast 1550 sprayer from ProgressiveAg that has a factory-installed Smart Apply System. Watch the spray action closely. As the tractor moves down the row, Smart Apply’s LiDAR is reading location, size and foliage density of each tree. In milliseconds, it activates the sprayers nozzles to spray based on what it senses. At about 12 second, there is a missing tree screen left. The sprayer automatically stops spraying. Smart Apply’s precision spraying saves growers an average of 50% on chemicals and water. That’s not a one time savings. That’s every year the system’s in use. If you’d like to add a Smart Apply System to your air blast or over-the row sprayer, find a dealer here: https://lnkd.in/gAee_nkH Smart Apply®, Inc.

Thanks for sharing Vann Family Orchards
California's almond production is anticipated to reach 2.80 billion in 2024, according to the USDA NASS's Objective Measurement Report. This marks a 7% decrease from the subjective estimate released in May and a 13% rise compared to last year's crop. Take a look at the full forecast here: https://lnkd.in/gEquqjxi

Smart Apply is heading to Texas for next week’s TEXAS PECAN GROWERS ASSOCIATION annual conference in San Marco. Although this is our first time exhibiting at this event, it’s kind of like old home week. You see, pecan growers - specifically Georgia pecan growers - were among the first to embrace the Smart Apply precision spray and data system. We give credit to Tim Sikes, a pecan grower from Dawsonville, who began using our system four years ago. Using his Smart Apply System, which he installed on an existing sprayer, he saves about 45% percent on chemicals EVERY YEAR. Give his story a look. We hope to see you in Texas next week!

Smart Apply, maker of the Intelligent Spray Control System for high-value crops like pecans, is excited to be exhibiting for the first time at the TEXAS PECAN GROWERS ASSOCIATION annual conference July 14-17 in San Marcos. We will be represented by Kirk Bailey, who has helped multiple pecan growers across Georgia adopt our precision spray and data system that reduces chemical and water use by an average of 50%. One of the many cool things about Smart Apply is that it’s kit that can be added to current air blast sprayers along with new sprayers. Heck, we’ve got a grower who added a Smart Apply System to his older model Savage and has been using this rig for four seasons now and saving 45% a year on his chemicals! Please stop by the Smart Apply®, Inc. booth - look for a ring of flashing lights - and meet Kirk. Or, email us at [email protected] and we’ll introduce you before hand.
