Abstract
Estimating pesticide spray drift, which is a part of total drift loss, is complex as airborne pesticide concentrations are low and depend on multiple factors. The aim was to measure and compare vertical profiles of spray drift generated by different sprayers using Open Path Fourier-Transform-Infra-Red (OP-FTIR) spectrometer. Field tests included three types of commercial agricultural sprayers. The OP-FTIR was placed at the edge of an apple...
