An agricultural distribution machine for spreading liquid and/or solid plant protection products by means of a distribution apparatus which is height-adjustably arranged on a frame of the distribution machine having a plurality of nozzle holders with spray nozzles mounted thereon arranged spaced apart from each other for the purpose of distributing the plant protection product to be spread. Activation of the distribution apparatus is carried out based on at 10 least two spray profiles stored in a computer unit, each spray profile composed of a plurality of parameters. In order to achieve a consistent distribution quality of the plant protection product, different spray profiles can be stored in a computer unit and, in the instance of a deviation of the parameters of a spray profile, an automated activation of the distribution machine or of the distribution 15 apparatus to the parameters of a second spray profile is carried out.
