An algae-based polymer material as a pesticide adjuvant for mitigating off-target drift
Off-target pesticide drift from cropland is a major source of pesticide exposure to pollinating insects inhabiting crop and wildlands in the lower Mississippi Delta (LMD) in the USA. This study is aimed to develop a drift-reducing pesticide adjuvant that

Development of a Crop Adapted Spray Application (CASA) sprayer for orchards [PDF]
In the EU-FP6 ISAFRUIT project a Crop Adapted Spray Application system (CASA) for precision crop protection was developed (Doruchowski et al., 2009). The system ensures efficient and safe spray application in orchards according to actual needs and with ...

Design and Experiment of Orchard Air-Assisted Sprayer with Airflow Graded Control
The orchard air-assisted sprayer exhibits strong droplet penetration, allowing uniform adhesion on both the front and back surfaces of leaves. The spray deposition and spray drift are influenced not only by the amount of pesticide but also by the airflow

A review of the meteorological parameters which affect aerial application [PDF]
The ambient wind field and temperature gradient were found to be the most important parameters. Investigation results indicated that the majority of meteorological parameters affecting dispersion were interdependent and the exact mechanism by which these
