Popis: | Recent dramatic increases in crop yields are due to many factors but one of the most important is the wide use of crop protection chemicals. For maximum efficiency, it is essential to develop spraying equipment that uses the minimum quantity of chemical to produce a given effect. At the same time it is necessary to comply with the increasingly strict legal requirements designed to protect both the environment and agricultural workers. |
