DETERMINATION OF SPRAY DRIFT CHARACTERISTICS OF A RONNIE BAUGH TRACTOR-TRAILED BOOM SPRAYER USING COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS [PDF]

Engenharia Agrícola, 2023
Spray drift leads to wastage of spraying material and poses a threat to non-targeted crops and the environment. Therefore, the spray drift characteristics of a Ronnie Baugh (RB) tractor-trailed boom sprayer were determined through computational fluid ...
