A METHOD TO REDUCE SPRAY DRIFT DURING APPLICATION OF PESTICIDES AND CROP PROTECTION AGENTS
摘要
<p>Spray drift during the application of agricultural chemicals is reduced by incorporating a monosaccharide or a mixture of monosaccharides into the liquid to be sprayed and by spraying the resulting liquid through a flat fan or straight stream nozzle without a deflector. Average spray droplet sizes are increased and the percentage of driftable spray droplets (<150 microns) produced are reduced.</p>
