Computational simulation of wireless sensor networks for pesticide drift control
(SpringerNetherlands, 2014-06)
The efficient application of low cost pesticides is a challenge for agricultural production. Pesticide drift is a major cause of environmental contamination. At the time of application, it is essential to know the environmental ...
Factors affecting aerial spray drift in the Brazilian Cerrado
(2019-02-01)
Pesticides aerial application may results in the drift to neighboring areas if some application technology is not well executed. This phenomenon should be minimized to reduce environmental risks and agricultural production ...
Knowledge on adjuvant properties, disposal of pesticideresidues and spray drift occurrence in the state of mato grosso
(2016-03-01)
This paper aimed at investigating the knowledge level of people working on pesticide spraying activities concerning spray adjuvant properties, as well as collecting information on disposal locations for residues from ...
Effect of Pressure on the Quality of Pesticide Application in Orchards
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2010)
WEATHER CONDITIONS OF PONTAL OF PARANAPANEMA AND AERIAL SPRAYING OF PESTICIDES
(Univ Estadual Paulista Julio Mesquita Filho, 2020-05-01)
Aerial spraying of pesticides has increasingly become a topic for discussion about its viability and safety. If, on one hand, it is a tool for monetary gains and time reduction in agricultural sectors, conversely, exposes ...
Fine-tuning of UAV control rules for spraying pesticides on crop fields
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers - IEEELimassol, 2014-11)
The use of pesticides in agriculture is essential to maintain the quality of large-scale production. The spraying of these products by using aircraft speeds up the process and prevents compacting of the soil. However, ...
Glyphosate runoff and its occurrence in rainwater and subsurface soil in the nearby area of agricultural fields in Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-06)
Glyphosate-based products are among the most important herbicides applied to enhance the production of food commodities, leading to the worldwide spread of this herbicide. The main goal of this work was to evaluate the ...
SPECTRUM AND VELOCITY OF DROPLETS OF SPRAY NOZZLES WITH AND WITHOUT AIR INDUCTION
(Soc Brasil Engenharia Agricola, 2018-03-01)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the spectrum and the velocity of droplets produced by nozzles with and without air induction, under different pressures and flow rates. The experiment was conducted in a completely ...
Blade angle effect on droplet size spectrum of rotary atomizers used in Brazil
(2016-01-01)
The effect of blade angle on droplet size spectrum of five rotary cage atomizers and one rotary disc atomizer used in Brazil was evaluated in a high speed wind tunnel, with an air speed of 180 km h-1. This study included ...
Influência de pontas de pulverização e adjuvantes no potencial de redução de deriva em túnel de vento
(2013-01-01)
The drift is intimately linked to inappropriate use of pesticides and an important factor for reducing it, is the correct selection of spray nozzles and adjuvants. The objective of this work was to evaluate the drift ...
