Drop Size Measurement Techniques for Agricultural Sprays:A State-of-The-Art Review

Drop Size Measurement Techniques for Agricultural Sprays:A State-of-The-Art Review

Plant protection control based on the spray application of plant protection products is a very complex task depending on a series of factors, among which droplet size is the most influential for deposition and pesticide effectiveness. In fact, the adoption of the correct droplet size can ensure that...
