Kestrel 3550AG Spraying Weather Meter – Designed for Accurate Crop Spraying Conditions – USA-Made, Waterproof, Floating, Bluetooth-Enabled with Delta-T, Wind Speed, Temperature & More

The Kestrel 3550AG Spraying Weather Meter is a top-tier, USA-made weather meter designed specifically for the agricultural industry, enabling farmers and applicators to accurately assess crop spraying conditions and ensure effective, safe applications. Whether you're measuring wind speed, temperature, humidity, wind chill, or Delta-T, this meter helps you make informed decisions for optimal spraying. The Kestrel 3550AG also provides Bluetooth connectivity, allowing for seamless data logging, record-keeping, and drift management in real-time.

Key Features:

  • Comprehensive Weather Measurements: The Kestrel 3550AG provides critical weather data including wind speed, current wind speed, average wind speed, maximum wind gusts, temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity, wind chill, heat stress index, dew point temperature, wet bulb temperature (psychrometric), altitude (barometric), and temperature-humidity index (THI). This information is essential for assessing spraying conditions and ensuring safety during pesticide, herbicide, or fungicide applications.

  • Delta-T for Crop Spraying: Delta-T is a vital factor for determining optimal crop spraying conditions. This feature helps applicators assess whether the environmental conditions are suitable for effective spraying and minimizing the risk of drift. By factoring in temperature and humidity, the Kestrel 3550AG ensures you stay within safe spraying guidelines and select the best nozzle for the job.

  • Bluetooth Connectivity: The Kestrel 3550AG comes with Bluetooth technology, enabling you to sync data with your mobile device or other compatible apps. This makes it easy to record and timestamp weather data, keeping track of environmental conditions throughout your spraying activities and simplifying your record-keeping process for compliance and reporting.

  • Drift Management: With real-time data on wind speed and Delta-T, the Kestrel 3550AG helps you manage drift during crop spraying. By understanding wind conditions and humidity, you can adjust your spraying technique to reduce off-target drift, protecting nearby crops, waterways, and sensitive areas.

  • Waterproof & Floats: Designed to withstand tough outdoor conditions, the Kestrel 3550AG is waterproof and floats if dropped in water, making it an ideal tool for spraying in variable weather conditions, on boats, or in wet environments.

  • Built to Last – Made in the USA: The Kestrel 3550AG is designed and built in the USA to provide durability, accuracy, and reliability. It’s the trusted choice for professionals in agriculture, including those working in the field or handling crop spraying operations.

  • Customer Satisfaction: Rated 5.00 out of 5 stars from 4 reviews, the Kestrel 3550AG is highly regarded for its accuracy, ease of use, and reliability in field conditions. Customers appreciate how the meter aids in crop spraying and drift management, with one customer stating it’s helped keep their sprays on target and another praising its Bluetooth features for record-keeping.

This is the equation referenced by Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural affairs; Journal of Dairy Science; and the University of Arizona. The YOUSEF THI equation is defined as: THI = Tdb + (0.36 × Tdp) + 41.2 (Yousef, 1985) where Tdb is dry bulb temperature in °C and Tdp is dew point temperature in °C.

Bought this Kestrel 3550 AG as an upgrade to the 2500 given for me to use at a previous job. I like that it connects to an app for record keeping and is easily calibrated out in the field. I made this purchase in August after doing a sulfur spray in a sheltered canyon. In November now and it has helped keep the sprays on target.

I ordered this item for my friend who is in the army. I contacted the store before ordering - the response was quick and very nice. The delivery to Poland was also very fast and the product was well packed.

Was very impressed with the whole experience. I live in Ontario, Canada and was a bit skeptical about ordering on line. Ordered my Kestrel. It said 6 day delivery and it was on our door step on day six.Got the unit set up, connected to my phone and am excited to try it next time I spray. To be able to take a snap shot of the weather picture to back up my spray diary is just an extra piece of mind.
Very happy.
