RD-2007-3273 Optimising pesticide use in arable agriculture by improving nozzle selection based on product efficacy to give optimised use and improved spray drift control.
This project aims to establish a nozzle/spray classification scheme that will encompass the range of known application systems, particularly air induction, twin fluid and spinning discs, to enable users to minimise the risk of drift while maintaining high levels of product efficacy.
