MagrowTec & Symphony Precision Systems | Justin Smith

Justin Smith, owner of a family farming operation in Scribben County, shares his remarkable results after implementing MagrowTec magnetic spray technology and Symphony individual nozzle control systems through AgTechnologies. With nearly 20 years of partnership and precision agriculture experience across his 6,500-acre cotton, corn, and peanut operation, Justin has witnessed firsthand how the right technology partnerships drive measurable results.

Proven Technology, Proven Results

From his first Trimble guidance system to today’s cutting-edge spray technologies, Justin’s operation has continuously evolved. The addition of MagrowTec and Symphony systems has delivered transformative results across his entire spraying program.

The transformation in Justin’s operation has been remarkable:

• Water Usage Reduction: Cut application rates from 12-15 gallons per acre down to just 5-6 gallons
• Coverage Efficiency: Eliminated drift issues while achieving superior coverage, including under-leaf penetration
• Productivity Gains: Enabled spraying 1,000 additional acres per week with existing equipment
• Application Precision: Symphony’s individual nozzle control eliminates over-spraying and maintains consistent pressure at any speed
• Operational Flexibility: Can adjust speeds from 2 mph to 20 mph while maintaining precise application rates

“I don’t understand how it works, because it’s just magnets and your water and chemicals running through magnets. I can’t explain it, but it works,” Justin explains about MagrowTec technology. “When you pull to the end of the field, instead of your spray just drifting, you can see it lay down where it’s supposed to go.”

Return on Investment

Justin estimates saving “a couple hundred thousand dollars a year” through reduced labor, time, and chemical usage. The efficiency gains allow one operator to cover significantly more ground per day, maximizing the productivity of existing equipment while reducing input costs.

The Symphony system provides additional value through:

• Precise individual nozzle control instead of section-based shutoff
• Consistent application rates regardless of field conditions or travel speed
• Reduced chemical waste and soil impact from over-application
• Simple plug-and-play installation on new or existing sprayers

Partnership That Delivers

“When you’ve been doing business with somebody for almost 20 years and you have faith in what they do, it makes everything a whole lot easier to step out on a limb and try something new,” Justin notes. He particularly values AgTechnologies’ honest assessment of whether new technology fits his specific operation.

“There’s been times they’ve told me no… to have somebody that you can trust to know that they’re not just trying to take any bit of money, that they’re really trying to help you move forward in your operation means a lot.”

“I’m trying to use something from AgTechnologies from start to finish, because I believe in their products that much,” Justin concludes, highlighting the complete confidence that comes from two decades of successful partnership.
