Larger farms use herbicides or repeated plowing.

– In our fields Hogweed is not really a lot. But the dynamics of the spread is alarming: three or four years ago it did not exist. Next year we are planning the purchase of herbicides, he said.
There are new high-tech methods of dealing with the weed. According to General Director of the company Ctrl2GO Alexey Belinsky, will help artificial intelligence. A special program collects, processes and analyzes data from satellites and drones. A map of the processing of specifying the density of the overgrowth, calculated the required amount of herbicides. Due to this, the consumption of herbicides is reduced by about half.
