Retention of sprays on plants is a critical component influencing the effectiveness of agrichemical applications. Previous simulations of spray retention by plants gave poor agreement for hard-to-wet species when compared with actual measured retenti

Polymers and surfactants are commonly used as adjuvants in agrochemical spray solutions. In this study, we probe the effects of changes in steady state polymer chain conformation (as a result of surfactant addition) on the physical properties of dilu

BACKGROUND: Previous research has sought to adopt the use of drift-reducing technologies (DRTs) for use in field trials to control diamondback moth (DBM) Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) in canola (Brassica napus L.). Previous stud

Pesticides used in agricultural systems must be applied in economically viable and environmentally sensitive ways, and this often requires expensive field trials on spray deposition and retention by plant foliage. Computational models to describe whe

Pesticides are commonly applied by using hydraulic nozzles to generate droplets. The properties of these spray droplets can influence the effectiveness and risks associated with the use of pesticides. Initial spray characteristics (initial droplet si

This paper combines experimental data with simple mathematical models to investigate the influence of spray formulation type and leaf character (wettability) on shatter, bounce and adhesion of droplets impacting with cotton, rice and wheat leaves. Im

To combat mosquitoes and the public health hazards they present, spraying chemical adulticides is an efficient and timely control method for immediate reduction of adult populations. With the growing consciousness of environmental and public health c

Realistic virtual models of leaf surfaces are important for several applications in the plant sciences, such as modelling agrichemical spray droplet movement and spreading on the surface. In this context, the virtual surfaces are required to be smoot
