Abstract
Due to steep slopes and fragmented plots in hilly and mountainous areas, the spray application for crop protection is challenging. Currently, valuable alternatives to the conventional pesticide application equipment, like ground-based airblast sprayers, are under evaluation both in apple orchards and vineyards. Amongst them, fixed spray delivery systems (FSDS) have shown potential to guaranteeing adequate spray deposition on the target and biological efficacy while reducing spray drift phenomena (Mozzanini et al., 2023, Ballion and Verpont, 2023). Based on this premises, two FSDS prototypes were tested in apple orchard to evaluate their performances for apple scab managementFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
