Understanding Spray Attributes of Commercial UAAS as Impacted by Operational and Design Parameters

open access: yesDrones, 2022
Unmanned aerial application systems (UAAS) have recently gained momentum for the application of crop protection (CP) products. Due to their high operational efficiency, mobility, and low cost, UAAS may be perceived as a more viable option for spray ...

Determining the efficiencies of airborne droplet collectors in spray drift analysis using CFD. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Airborne sampling collectors are commonly used in spray drift analysis to measure the concentration of an airborne product, such as pollen or spray, by collecting the mass of the product during the sampler's operation.

Trinexapac-Ethyl and Sulfometuron-Methyl Selectivity to Young Eucalyptus Plants [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta Daninha, 2015
Trinexapac-ethyl and sulfometuron-methyl are the most widely used ripeners in sugarcane. The application is performed by airborne spraying. Thus, if weather conditions are unfavorable, spray drift to neighboring areas may occur.

Spray drift of pesticides arising from aerial application in cotton

open access: yes, 2001
This paper presents results from field studies carried out during the 1993-1998 Australian cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seasons to monitor off-target droplet movement of endosulfan (6,7,8,9,10,10-hexachloro-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano-2,4,3 ...

Airborne spray drift measurement using passive collectors and lidar Systems

open access: yes, 2009
Minimization of the risk associated with spray applications requires a proper understanding of the spray drift phenomenon. This fact has led to the development of several techniques to measure the deposition on horizontal surfaces as well as the ...

Intelligent sprayer enhances drift reduction: Wind condition correlation and comparative field study in ash tree applications

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
Spray drift from pesticide applications poses serious risks to the environment, human health, and neighboring crops. This research evaluated and analyzed off-target spray drift reduction potentials of an axial-fan air-blast sprayer retrofitted with a ...
