Comparison of pesticide application techniques in a commercial crop of estatice (L¡monium sinuatum) in the Bogota plateau ; Evaluación de técnicas de aplicación de plaguicidas en un cultivo de estatice (Limonium sinuatum Mill), en la Sabana De Bogotá

This paper shows the results of a research aimed at assessing different nozzle-pressure combinations, considering physical parameters concerned with pesticide application techniques, in an Estatice (Limonium sinuatum Mili) crop under greenhouse conditions. Water sensitive paper (WSP) was used to determine spray distribution and droplet density. The nozzles used were Maruyama C-35, Maruyama 0-35 and Albuz APTpurple. Two tests were made; one, applying the spray to the entire plants and the other, applying the spray only to the top third of the plants. Then, with the best treatments, a biological... Mehr ...
