Comparison of Spray Droplet Size and Coverage for Nozzles Used for Agronomic Weed ControlPublished by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, St. Joseph, Michigan www.asabe.org Citation: Paper number MC09207, 2005 Special Meeting Papers. (doi: 10.13031/2013.27331) @2009Authors: Robert E Wolf, Cory Friedli, Brian Lauer Keywords: droplet size, coverage, water sensitive paper, nozzles, deposition, air induction Laboratory comparisons of nozzles that could be used to apply crop protection herbicides with a conventional ground sprayer were performed. Water sensitive paper (wsp) was placed under the simulated spray boom to collect spray droplets from each nozzle treatment. DropletScan software was used to analyze the wsp and determine differences in percent area coverage (PAC), deposition (GPA), and droplet size (DV0.5). (Download PDF) (Export to EndNotes)
