Determination of accuracy level of agricultural spraying application in Sanliurfa/ Turkey

Abstract: When calibration, spraying height, applied pressure, volume rate, nozzle type and application time of equipment used in pesticide applications are incorrect, this causes the amount of agricultural pesticide applied per unit area to be more or less needed. A survey study was carried out on farmers in order to determine whether or not they adjust application pressure of pesticide equipment, nozzle type, volume rate, spraying height and calibration of spraying equipment needed for pesticide application to have va… Show more

“…Air conditions with low relative humidity and high temperatures make droplets evaporate in still air, losing all the diluent and creating very small particles of concentrated chemical which may be carried over much longer distances by air flows and contaminate the environment (Matthews, 2000;Tobi et al, 2011). So it is important to choose the best moment to spray at the field to avoid contaminations.…”
