主权项 1. A spray boom system configured for the application of an agricultural solution containing agriculturally active ingredients, the spray boom system including a frame having a longitudinal axis, a plurality of nozzles supported by the frame and configured to distribute agriculturally active ingredients, the plurality of nozzles including a right-most nozzle and a left-most nozzle, the right-most nozzle and the left-most nozzle being separated by a lateral distance, a pressure source configured to pressurize a solution containing the agriculturally active ingredient, a tank configured to store at least a portion of the solution, and a plurality of conduits positioned to direct the pressurized solution along a plurality of solution paths to the plurality of nozzles, each of the plurality of conduits directing the pressurized solution downward and the plurality of solution paths having a lateral component, a sum of the lateral components of the plurality of solution paths defining a lateral sum, a ratio of the lateral sum to the lateral distance being equal to or greater than 1.5, wherein the plurality of conduits includes a plurality of middle junctions that divides the solution for delivery to at least a laterally inward nozzle and a laterally outward nozzle of the plurality of nozzles, the laterally inward nozzles are positioned laterally inward of the respective middle junctions delivering solution to the laterally inward nozzles, the laterally outward nozzles are positioned laterally outward of the respective middle junctions delivering solution to the laterally outward nozzles.
