Irrational use of chemical method for crop protection, presents increasingly serious risks human health and the environment. Droplet size meteorological parameters are key factors to both environmental contamination pest control efficacy. The objective this study is assess impact nozzle parameters, operating pressure wind speed on droplet foliage deposition (retention) soil (losses), when treating artichoke. Several combinations were tested in a tunnel field, under Mediterranean...
During the spraying of low crops, large quantities pesticides are transferred from crop-growing areas to atmosphere, by drift inducing environmental impacts, human health problems and economic loses. To better understand this phenomenon, spray emission modeling, in combination with field tests, could be a suitable solution but modeling stills most used approach. Thus, scientific community developed mathematical computational models describe complicated interactions between droplets its...
