Dr. David Manktelow will be covering various aspects of tree fruit and grape spraying including:
- What is the target
- How can you describe different targets
- Understanding variability – How much chemical do different parts of a canopy receive from a spray application and what does this actually mean
- How much chemical to apply
- Interpreting the label to match the target
- What spray volume is going to be most effective and why
- The point of runoff
- Concentrate spraying
- Droplet size
- Work rate considerations
- Adjuvant interactions with coverage and runoff
- What dose of chemical have you landed and how would you know
- Feedback loops and responses
- Limiting factors – what scale do they work at and how can you avoid stuffing up
- Application rates – achieving coverage – sprayer setup – product selection in a spray programme – spray timing
