Stink bugs are economically important pests in soybean crops, affecting yield as well as the physiological and sanitary quality of grains or seeds. The present study aimed to assess the spray deposition into soybean canopy, ...

Improved spray deposition can be attained by electrostatically charging spray droplets, which increases the attraction of droplets to plants and decreases operator exposure to pesticide and losses to the environment. ...

Fungicide application technology to control soybean rust (SBR) is lacking and requires optimization to improve spray coverage in the lower part of the crop canopy as well as the spray distribution uniformity. The goal of ...

Crop protection on major crops is now required to follow the principles of integrated pest management so the timing and accuracy of any application of a pesticide or biopesticide has to be more precise to minimize adverse ...

The study aimed to evaluate the performance of air assistance in spray booms using different types of nozzles and spray volumes. We took into account spray deposits, fall armyworm control and crop corn performance in a ...
