In the field of pesticide spraying, droplet size is one of the most important factors affecting
droplet deposition and drift. In order to study the effect of different droplet size parameters on …

Previous studies have confirmed that choosing nozzles that produce coarser droplets could
reduce the risk of pesticide spray drift, but this conclusion is based on a large volume of …

Consistent spray coverage that is evenly distributed throughout the canopy is necessary to
control pest populations that can negatively affect yield. As applicators are switching to …

The deposition and retention of foliar-applied plant disease-management products and
other pesticides in relation to spray application parameters have rarely been characterized …

Spray applications are most effective when they cover the greatest per unit area, improving
target pest control. In order to optimize spray applications, nozzle companies have …

The overuse of pesticides leads to contamination of water and food. Therefore, there is a
need for tools and strategies to optimize pesticide application. Here we present SnapCard, a …

As part of minimizing the risk of crop losses due to herbivorous arthropods (here, mainly
referring to insects and mites), most of the World's commercial food production systems are …

Defoliant spraying is an important aspect of the mechanized processing of pepper
harvesting. Complete and uniform spraying of defoliant could improve the quality of …

Many insect and disease problems occur in specific plant canopy locations and cannot be
managed with systemic pesticides. Diseases such as Asian soybean rust (ASR)(Phakopsora …

Efficient and accurate application of pesticides can improve biological efficacy, reduce
