Simulation-aided study of herbicide patch spraying: Influence of spraying features and weed spatial distributions [PDF]

open access: yesComputers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2021
Abstract Patch spraying is a technological way to reduce herbicide amounts required to control weeds by triggering spraying only where weeds lie. Nevertheless, the adoption rate of this technology by farmers is still low and there is a lack of efficient tools to assess patch herbicide applications depending on spraying features and weed spatial ...

A decision algorithm for patch spraying

Weed Research, 2003
SummaryIt has been established that weeds are spatially aggregated with a spatially varying composition of weed species within agricultural fields. Site‐specific spraying therefore requires a decision method that includes the spatial variation of the weed composition and density.

Operational research analysis of patch spraying

Crop Protection, 1993
Abstract Sprays to control infestations of major cereal weeds such as wild oats and blackgrass are expensive and these weeds frequently appear to occur in patches. Spraying only those patches with weeds thus appears attractive from both an environmental and economic viewpoint.

Patch spraying: future role of electronics in limiting pesticide use†

Pest Management Science, 2003
AbstractDevelopments relating to the control of application equipment can deliver improvements in pesticide use by better matching applications to target requirements. This may have components relating to the spatial distribution of a weed, pest or disease or methods by which the target, particularly a crop canopy, can be described with respect to a ...

Patch spraying of weeds in spring cereals: Simulated influences of threshold level and spraying resolution on spraying errors and potential herbicide reduction

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Scandinavica - Section B Soil and Plant Science, 2007
Abstract A major obstacle to patch spraying of broad-leaved weeds in cereals is a cost-effective method to assess within-field heterogeneity of the weed population. One method could be a camera mounted in front of the spraying vehicle, online image analysis, and field sprayer shifting between ‘on’ and ‘off’ as the predefined weed damage threshold level

Acoustic ceiling patch spray

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1995
An acoustic ceiling patch or textured material in the form of a sprayable composition including a base, a filler and a binder as well as a propellant or carrier storable and dispensable from a pressurized dispenser having a delivery nozzle and a removable dispensing tube.

A stochastic simulation model for evaluating the concept of patch spraying

Weed Research, 1998
The long‐term economic benefits of `patch' spraying are likely to be related to the initial spatial distribution of the target weeds, the demographic characteristics of the species and the weed control and crop husbandry practices to which they are subjected.

Development of patch and spray formulations for enhancing topical delivery of sinomenine hydrochloride

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2010
The purpose of this work was to investigate feasibility of a promising topical drug delivery system (TDDS) for sinomenine hydrochloride (SMH), extracted from the Chinese medicinal plant sinomenine acutum and currently used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
