Drift-reducing technology Environmentallyrelevant requirements As much as necessary as little as possible. For effective plant protection the proposed active substances must reach the target without any loss. Therefore it is essential to reduce drift by wind or thermal to avoid pollution of crops, waters, humans as well as animals. Application regulations for plant protection products, e.g. distance restrictions to water and ﬁeld boundary structures, have been deﬁned in order to protect non-target organisms. The distances from water and ﬁeld boundaries can be reduced with air-injector nozzles....

Nozzle type inﬂuences deposit on target area Better coverage on vertical targets can be achieved by using twin ﬂat fan nozzles. Penetration into the canopy a standard single fan nozzle has advantages. Winter wheat BBCH 37 16 km/h - 200 l/ha 3 tracer deposit (ng/cm2)/(g/ha) To obtain high biological efficacy best coverage at the target is prerequisite. Depending on crop and growth stage this may change. So for optimum application there is a need for at least two or more different nozzle settings. Important is to know the target area.
