Validating Spray Coverage Rate Using Liquid Mass on a Spray Card
Transactions of the ASABE, 2018 Abstract. Validation of agricultural sprayers is important for quantifying as-applied coverage rates under field conditions. The complexity of modern sprayer control systems presents a challenge for precise field validation due to the use of nozzle control technologies, such as pulse width modulation, to meter chemical flow rates at individual nozzles.
