Only if you drove on 100% of the rows. Quite a bit of research was done on this topic a few yeas ago when we all thought we would spray every acre for ASR, and what I said was the result of that research. If you have a 120' boom in 15" rows, you would be spraying 96 rows. If you drive on 2 of them, that would be about 2%. In 60 bushel beans, that would be about 1 bushel loss. I would consider that to be minimal, to use your term, compared to the potential gain from the spray.
